Check your washer's hoses!
I just happened to think to check them, and thank the Lord I found this guy before it let loose!

I had a floor drain installed in our laundry room for this exact reason.
Good catch |

Interesting. How old are the hoses? There is a suggested replacement interval.

I replace mine every four years after having one burst about 20 years ago on a five year old washer.
Also, throw away the shit hose that comes with the washing machine. |

A relative had their basement office flooded because of this type of hose on a dishwasher upstairs. Stainless steel hoses are recommended for this reason.
