A laundry connection is not complete until the drain and test cycle behave properly.
The laundry drain was cabled into the stack and flushed before the appliance hoses were connected. A complete test cycle then confirmed drainage and checked the new connections for leakage.

The service record
Drainage and water connections were checked together.
The laundry drain was cabled into the stack and flushed with hot water. The washing-machine hoses were then connected to the accessible shutoff valves.
Air was bled from the hoses so the appliance could detect water correctly. A complete test cycle finished without a drain backup or visible leakage at the new connections.
Installation details
