How to Change the Vent Amount on a Huebsch Washing Machine

Huebsch washing machines include a venting system that runs a black vent hose through the back of the washer into your home wall vent. If you notice too much steam coming from the back of the washing machine, you may have a broken vent hose or a hose that is too small. The vent hose can be replaced with a larger hose, which can be ordered from Huebsch or another retailer.
