Simpson Aquarius washing machine 7kg: water overflowing from the sink on drain and spin cycles. Drainage hose from the washing machine goes straight to the drain under the sink. We have added 3x draino to sink and taken off the U- Tube - no blockage. If you turn the washing machine off during the drain and spin cycle the water (dirty) goes back into the washing machine. Q: Washing machine or plumbing?
SOUNDS LIKE A PLUMBING PROBLEM WITH DRAIN PIPE .YOU COULD FIT NONRETURN VALVE TO DRAIN FROM WASHER BUT THAT WOULD NOT STOP SINK FROM OVER FLOWING

First a washing machine needs to drain into an open site drain with an air gap not directley into the drain tube under a sink. second you probably have issues with the drain line down stream of the sink. Third after looking you model up on the web you would be better off to get rid of that machine and subscribe to consumer reports and buy a better working model machine and have it professionaly installed by a licensed & bonded plumbing company.
