My washer doesn't dump into a tub, but I did the same. I put a nylon stocking on the end of my hose, making it VERY secure with rubber bands. I only secured the top end of the stocking, letting the foot part hang free, then stuffed it down drain pipe. I was afraid it might work loose so I stood by to watch it. Worked perfectly. I did remove the stocking and clean it after every rinse.
