Location Requirements
Selecting the proper location for your washer improves
performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed under a custom counter, or in a
basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. See "Drain
System." Companion appliance location requirements should
also be considered. Proper installation is your responsibility.
You will need
A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the
■
washer.
A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft (1.8 m)
■
of where the power cord is attached to the back of the
washer. See "Electrical Requirements."
Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of
■
the hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of
20-100 psi (137.9-689.6 kPa).
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under
■
entire washer. Installing the washer on soft floor surfaces,
such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not
recommended.
A sturdy and solid floor to support the washer with a total
■
weight (water and load) of 400 lbs (180 kg).
Do not operate your washer in temperatures below 32°F (0°C).
Some water can remain in the washer and can cause damage
in low temperatures.
Installation clearances
The location must be large enough to allow the washer
■
door to be fully opened.
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
■
installation and servicing. The door opens more than 90°,
and it is not reversible.
Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and
■
floor moldings.
Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the washer
■
is recommended to reduce noise transfer.
Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
