I have an odd problem, our duet washer is filling, with hot water only, when completely turned off and not in use. I came down to do laundry and found quite a substantial amount in the tub already. I drained it and did my load, and then checked the next day and same thing. I have a feeling this is also causing our hot water heater to run more than normal since the water is actually warm. Any help is appreciated.

Laura, this sounds like a faulty water inlet valve: 8182862. It tends to leak on either the cold or hot when not working properly. I’ll attach a video below on replacing it, as well as the part link you’ll need to purchase a new one. Let us know if we can be of further assistance to you!

Above answer is correct, but make sure that the water pressure to the unit is high enough, equivalent to a garden hose. Low water pressure stops the valve from closing all the way. You may also purchase new hoses from ApplianceVideo.com as you are probably overdue (past 5 years) Good Luck Laura.
