Does any one know if they make "Y" shaped rubber connectors (the hose the water drains from) for the washing machines?

I have 2 washing machines and 1 drain hole and wanted to get a "Y" shaped connector for the drainage hoses to connect them together to drain into the one hole. My question is do they make such a hose or is that something that I would have to "Create" to do the job?

Please help????

Not sure about the Y connector for the hoses but I think they make one for the standpipe. Pretty easy to glue one on. If no Y for the standpipe, you can get an adapter to glue on that will increase the size from 1 1/2" to 2" so both hoses will fit in. Dave

You could install a wye sweep on top of your stand pipe with another sweep to correct the 90 degree offset made by the wye. You now, will have two pipes within a foot of each other.
