# Speed Queen filter screens: a fill-hose check on a six-month clock

Speed Queen documents a fixed six-month check for the filter screens inside the fill hoses, and ties a washer filling slower than normal directly back to these screens before anything else.

## What Filter Screens actually means.

Speed Queen documents a fixed six-month check for the filter screens inside the fill hoses, and ties a washer filling slower than normal directly back to these screens before anything else.

What to do when Filter Screens shows on the home appliance

### Kind of code Water, fill and drain

Water is arriving too slowly or leaving too slowly, and the cause is usually something that collects over time: a washer drain filter holding lint, coins and hair, a dishwasher sump filter full of food, inlet screens clogged with grit from the supply, or too much detergent leaving suds the machine cannot rinse. Clear the filter over a tray with the machine unplugged, check that the supply valves are fully open, run a cleaning cycle, and book a visit if the hose itself leaks or bulges.

### Usually leads to Drum seal and drain filter cleaning

The door boot, drain filter, detergent drawer and fill hoses on the washer cleaned and checked, and the machine leveled.

### Shows up as Appliance Maintenance Code or Reminder Light: Filter, Descale, Vent Check

An appliance maintenance code is a reminder, icon or short code on a display asking for a filter change, descaling, a tub clean, rinse aid or an exhaust check rather than reporting a broken part.

### Make Speed Queen

Speed Queen machines are built for a long life, and the upkeep that gets them there is plain: hoses changed before they fail, lint paths cleared and drums kept fresh.

### Source Speed Queen washer owner's manual (Alliance Laundry Systems)

Documented in Speed Queen's home washer owner's manual; the same manual recommends replacing all supply hoses every five years regardless of visible wear.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Speed Queen's own guidance for Filter Screens on its home appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn off the water supply to the washer before disconnecting a fill hose to inspect the screen.

02

Check the filter screen inside each fill hose for debris or visible damage.

03

Clean or replace the screen as needed; Speed Queen lists Part No. 803615 as the correct replacement, ordered through Speed Queen's own parts network.

04

If the washer still fills slowly after the screens are clean, book a visit rather than keep clearing the same screens repeatedly.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [drum seal and drain filter cleaning](https://appliancemaintenance.center/services/drum-seal-and-drain-filter-cleaning/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

This is a fill-hose maintenance check, not a water-inlet-valve failure code. A washer that will not fill at all, with the screens confirmed clean, points to a different part than the screens themselves.

## Questions about Filter Screens.

### Can I clear Filter Screens myself?

Turn off the water supply to the washer before disconnecting a fill hose to inspect the screen. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### How often does Speed Queen say to check the fill hose filter screens?

Every six months, according to Speed Queen's own owner's manual, checking for debris or damage in the screens fitted inside each fill hose.

### My Speed Queen machine fills slowly — is that the filter screens?

It is the first thing Speed Queen's manual points to. Checking the fill hose filter screens for debris is the documented first step before assuming a valve has failed.

### What part number does Speed Queen use for a replacement fill hose filter screen?

Part No. 803615, which Speed Queen says to order through its own parts network rather than a generic universal screen.
