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
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).
n
A grounded electrical outlet located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of
n
power cord on back of washer. See "Electrical
Requirements."
Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of hot
n
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
n
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
n
washer. Installing on carpet is not recommended.
Floor must support washer's total weight (with water and
n
load) of 315 lbs (143 kgs).
A floor drain under the bulkhead. Prefabricated bulkheads
n
with electrical outlets, water inlet lines, and drain facilities
should be used only where local codes permit.
Recessed Area or Closet Installation
This washer may be installed in a recessed area or closet.
The installation dimensions shown are the minimum spaces

be considered.
