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" (250 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.
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.
