Normal height of the end of the hose should be ap-
proximately 35"-47" (0.9-1.2 m) from the floor.
Do not install the end of the drain hose lower than
29" (73.7 cm) or higher than 96 in. (243.8 cm)
above the bottom of the washer or more than 60

no air gap is present, water can be siphoned out of
the tub resulting in poor wash/rinse performance
or clothing damage.
