Is it legal for my new landlord to take out my washer hookup?

I moved in 8 years ago to this apartment. I’ve had 3 landlords since and now my current landlord is trying to take out the washer hookup. The washer hookup was the main reason I moved in. Is it legal for him to do this if I do not want him to? Can I legally refuse to let him in the apartment?
