LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, or
recessed area. See "Drain System."

Companion appliance location requirements should also be
(933 mm)
considered.
IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to the weather. Do not store or operate the washer in
temperatures at or below 32°F (0°C). Some water can remain in
the washer and can cause damage in low temperatures. Proper
installation is your responsibility.
You will need:
A water heater set to 120°F (49°C).
■
A grounded electrical outlet located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of
■
power cord on back of washer. See "Electrical Requirements."
Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of
■
hot and cold water fill valves on washer, and water pressure
of 20-100 psi (138-690 kPa). A pressure reduction valve
should be used in the supply line where inlet pressure
entering the building exceeds 100 psi (690 kPa) to avoid
damage to the washer mixing valve.
Single washer installations require 12" (300 mm) minimum
■
risers to provide an air cushion and avoid noise and damage
to valves.
A level floor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire
■
washer. Installing on carpet is not recommended.
Floor must support washer's total weight (with water and load)
■
of 315 lbs (143 kg).
