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
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 kgs).
■ A floor drain under the bulkhead. Prefabricated bulkheads
with electrical outlets, water inlet lines, and drain facilities
should be used only where local codes permit.
