We understand your concern regarding the loud hammering noise during the rinse mode on your LG WT6100CW top-load washer. This type of noise is often caused by an unbalanced load or water hammering in the pipes. As a troubleshooting step, we recommend checking if the washer is properly leveled by gently pushing it forward, backward, and sideways. If you feel excessive movement, adjusting the leveling legs can help reduce vibrations. Additionally, try redistributing your laundry to ensure it is evenly spread in the drum. Unevenly loaded or bulky items like rugs, blankets, and waterproof fabrics can cause the tub to become unbalanced, leading to loud noises during the spin cycle. If the noise sounds more like a knocking or hammering in the water pipes, it may be due to sudden valve closures during the rinse cycle. Installing a water hammer arrestor can help absorb the pressure and reduce the noise.
