Water Supply Requirements
NOTE: Water supply faucets must fit standard
3/4 in. (19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings.
DO NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON
CONNECTIONS.
NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily
accessible to permit turning them off when washer
is not being used.
Water Temperature
Cold:
Recommended cold water temperature is 60° to
80° Fahrenheit (16° to 27° Celsius).
Hot:
Recommended hot water temperature is 120° to
140° Fahrenheit (49° to 60° Celsius).
Warm:
Mixture of hot and cold water (warm water
temperature is dependent upon the water temperature
and the pressure of both the hot and cold water supply
lines).
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply faucets after
check-out and demonstration. Owner should turn
off water supply whenever there will be an
extended period of non-use.
NOTE: Longer fill hoses are available (as optional
equipment at extra cost) if the hoses (supplied with
the washer) are not long enough for the
installation. Order hoses as follows:
No. 20617 Fill Hose (8 ft.) (2.44 m)
No. 20618 Fill Hose (10 ft.) (3.05 m)
Water Pressure
Pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a maximum of
120 pounds per square inch (138 to 827 kPa) static
pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per
square inch (138 kPa) will cause an extended fill
time in the washer and may not properly flush out
the detergent dispenser.
Risers
Risers (or air cushions) may have to be installed if the
pipes knock or pound when flow of water stops. The
risers are more efficient when installed as close as
possible to the water supply faucets (refer to
Figure 20
).
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may
be produced in a hot water system that has
not been used for two weeks or more.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot
water system has not been used for such a
period and before using the washer, turn on
all hot water faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The
gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
