What is the best way to clean the inside pipes of a washing machine.?
Answers:
To get that gungy soap grease off? Go to Adsa/Tesco/Walmart, get some ordinary "Washing Soda" (55 pence a bag), empty the whole bag in the machine, do a hot wash. worked for me. Mine was that bad (looked at machine as it was washing, water was black/grey ) got a second bag, clean as a whistle. Now, I do this once a month, clean machine.
use that stuff they advertise on tv

DIsmantle the entire machine and run water through them. Alternatively just run the machine.
Wherever possible, a wire bristle brush & elbow grease is safer than chemicals. Have you cleaned or replaced the screens at the water connections? If that hasn't helped, a concentrated dose of Lime Away or toilet bowl cleaner (same ingredients) left to soak for about 10 minutes, followed by a thorough flushing with water is about the safest chemical treatment. You may have to do this 3 or 4 times. Never leave it in for long periods of time. The corrosive action can damage non metallic parts or metallic joints. It does not seem to affect rubber, which is in the seals & hoses If it dries before being flushed out with water, it will not work the next time due to newly created chemical residue from the chemical action of the metal & phosphoric acid.
I use this method on faucet screens, shower heads, tubs, sink & tub fixtures, etc. whenever calcium deposits are the problem. It will not work on rust for some reason. When done, it must be rinsed thoroughly, then wiped dry on any chromed or gold colored coatings or the coatings will be permanently damaged. Inside the washer plumbing, this should not be an issue
run a very hot wash cycle without putting washing in the machine
helps clean the scum off inside of glass door and rubber seals
50 yrs of washine and never heard of such a thing. simply replace the piping..
