GE Washer GTWN4250D0WS Water level question

Model Number

Brand

GE

Age

1-5 years

I have the above washer. With the selector for load on Super and no clothing in the washer the water level comes a little past half way. If I measure, from the bottom of the gray rubber top of the tub it's 6 7/8" to the water level. I took the control panel apart and blew through the pressure tube and it's clear without obstruction.

Where is the water level supposed to be?

It seems like there should be so much more water in this machine. With clothes in it the water level doesn't come over top of a full load.

Thanks for the help,
Doug

That's about normal Doug.

Look at Page 10 here: https://products.geappliances.com/M...1.1979940000.1665512064-1147212691.1655650627

Water level seems low--->This is normal--->Water may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal for this high-efficiency washer.

Jake, Thanks for the reply. I can't see the photo link you attached.

Any ideas if the water level can be brought up at all?

Thanks,
Doug

I didn't post a photo link Doug, I posted the link to your owners manual.

Look on Page 10 where it says--->Water level seems low--->This is normal--->Water may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal for this high-efficiency washer.

The adjustment screws are set by the factory, techs will not touch those unless the factory tells them too. There are no instructions to set them.

You WILL want to first remove the pressure switch hose from the pressure switch and blow into the hose, make sure there is NO water in the tub when you do that. You may have a very small restriction in the hose where it goes into your outer tub assembly nipple.

If you want to try anyways read what @Ctiptonk said here:

GTWN4250D1WS GE washer pressure switch WH12X10412. Any Adjustment?

Every youtube video shows only replacement of this specific switch. Anybody figured out how to adjust this specific switch to increase water levels? Thanks.

Just stay with your washer on every fill at first, to make sure it does not flood your floor.
