Hi,
If your washing machine has inlets for
both hot and cold water, you should connect both if possible. If you can only connect cold water, the washing machine will still work and heat to the required temperature, but it will need to heat the water in the machine, so the wash cycles will take longer and it will use more energy.
If connecting a hot and cold fill washing machine with
cold water only,
you will need to connect a Y-Piece for it to work:
The tail of the "Y" attaches to the cold water valve on your pipework. You then attach both hot and cold water hoses to the branches of the "Y" and connect both hot and cold water hoses to your washing machine.
Please post back if you need further assistance.
Regards,
