Why Is My Samsung Washer Noisy During Water Fill?

Discover why your Samsung washing machine makes noise during water supply. Learn about unbalanced loads, spin cycle issues, and how to resolve them effectively.

If your Samsung washing machine makes noise during water supply, it could be due to an unbalanced load or improperly distributed laundry. This issue often occurs during the spin cycle when the tub rotates at high speeds, causing a bumping sound if items are unevenly spread. Follow the steps below to resolve this problem.

1. Why does my Samsung washing machine make noise during water supply?

The noise during water supply is typically caused by an unbalanced load in the washing tub. When the tub rotates at high speeds during the spin cycle, unevenly distributed laundry can cause the tub to shift, resulting in a bumping sound. This issue is common with small or large loads, such as one or two pairs of jeans or several blankets.

2. How to fix noise during water supply in my Samsung washing machine

1. Check the laundry distribution: Ensure that clothes are evenly spread out in the washing tub. If the load is too small, add more items to balance it. If the load is too large, remove some items to fit the recommended amount.
2. Pause and redistribute: If the noise occurs mid-cycle, pause the machine and redistribute the laundry evenly before resuming the cycle.
3. Adjust the load size: For small loads, consider using the "Small Load" setting on your Samsung washing machine to optimize performance.

3. Additional things to check

- Ensure the washing machine is level: An unlevel machine can cause vibrations and noise. Check the stability of your washing machine and adjust the feet if necessary.

- Inspect the drum for obstructions: Remove any foreign objects or debris that may be causing the noise.

- Verify the water supply: Ensure the water inlet hose is not kinked or blocked, which could affect water flow and cause noise.
