Which installation service do you need for your washing machine?

To use your new washing machine as soon as possible, we provide the following services for a fee:

• We'll install the washing machine at the desired spot.
• We'll connect the washing machine to a pull switch.
• We'll place the dryer on your washing machine with a stacking kit.

You can add these services to your order before checkout.

If you have your washing machine installed in the desired spot, our delivery drivers will do the following for you:

• We'll place the washing machine in the desired spot.
• We'll level the washing machine.
• We'll connect the washing machine to the drain.
• We'll take the old washing machine with us.

We advise you to connect the washing machine to an earthed socket.

Is someone other than Coolblue going to connect your new washing machine? Place your old washing machine at the front door so our delivery drivers can take it with them for free.

With this installation service, our delivery drivers will connect your washing machine to a pull switch. This is a waterproof electrical connector, so you can safely connect your washing machine in a humid space. You need such a connector if you place the washing machine in your bathroom, for example. Don't have a pull switch yet? Have an electrician install it first. Our delivery drivers will then install the washing machine for you, and they won't leave until everything works.

You can easily recognize a pull switch. It's a white block with a cord on your bathroom wall. Is there a rubber connector at the end of the pull switch? That's a contra plug. In this case, you don't need an extra service and our delivery drivers can easily connect your new washing machine to the contra plug. Does the cable of the pull switch go directly into your washing machine? In that case, you do need this service.

If you want the dryer placed on top of your washing machine, have that done with a stacking kit. A stacking kit keeps your dryer securely on top of your washing machine. That way, you don't have to worry about it falling off during spinning. If you buy a washing machine or dryer with stacking kit, we'll install it for you.

Once you've determined which installation service is most suitable for your washing machine, you can select it when you check out the product on our website. Check all the boxes of the delivery services you want before you add the product to your cart. After that, choose the delivery and installation day. All you have to do now is wait for our delivery drivers to get to work for you.

Make sure to prepare the following things if you choose our installation service.

• Make sure the drain hose of your washing machine is at least 15cm long.
• Check the width of the doorways, hallways, and stairways that our delivery drivers have to go through. That way, we're sure we can deliver the appliance.
• Are we supposed to take your old washing machine with us too? Disconnect it beforehand.

Aren't we installing your new washing machine, but do we take your old one with us? Disconnect it and place it at the front door.

We don't provide an installation service to change the door direction of the washing machine. We don't change the door direction in general, because it can cause leaks. In addition, some washing machines have sensors in the door. Changing the door direction would cause problems. That's why you should check what the door direction is and if that's suitable for your situation before your purchase. If you place your dryer on top or next to your washing machine, for example.
