This cause water to leak out of the connections and causes water damage to the ceiling.The washer/dryer is in the hall upstairs on our units.We have also found tenants will use the cheap rubber hoses instead of the steel braided ones or not have a washer fitting inside the connection which causes a leak.Also if it is an older washer or connections at the wall the threading is older and even if you tighten it will leak.This is why we use Teflon tape when putting the steel lines on.It fills the imperfections of the threading and stops any leaks at the connection.Another area of leakage is at the discharge hose.If it is not properly clamped at the washer,has an old hose,or where the discharge hose goes into the drain line could cause a leak.
