Putting washing machine in shower cubicle?

We have a shower cubicle on first floor level that we want to put a washing machine into and dead the shower. Can you use the shower tray or does it have to come out? How can we put washing machine in the shower cubicle?

Answers

I would advise not to. In short.

Washing machines require their outlet waste pipes to be connected directly into a sealed trap unit or stand pipe.

I would advise removing the shower completeing any necessary building works adapting the waste pipe work to meet water, building and manufacturers regulations

Connect the incoming water to the washing machine via the mains/ hot water supplies with a washing machine isolation valve.

This ensures you have the correct installation and peace of mind
