and,whane you have the new one installed, consider putting it in a tray... they're designed to hold the water in case your machine overflows. Additionally, don't let the installers talk you into reusing the old feeder hoses from the taps (faucets here in the U.S.) to the machine... not only do they need to be new ones, it'smuch better to spring for the extra money and install the ones wrapped in stainless steel (Seen here:
