ordering, please refer to the toll free phone numbers on the front
page of the Washer/Dryer User Instructions.
Location Requirements
You will need
■
A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. See
“Venting Requirements.”
■
A separate 30-amp circuit.
■
If you are using a power supply cord, a grounded electrical
outlet located within 2 ft (61 cm) of either side of the washer/
dryer. See “Electrical Requirements.”
■
A sturdy floor to support the washer/dryer weight (washer/
dryer, water and load) of 500 lbs (226.8 kg).
■
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (2.5 cm) under entire
washer/dryer. Clothes may not tumble properly and automatic
sensor cycles may not operate correctly if washer/dryer is not
level. Installing on carpet is not recommended.
■
A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.
■
Hot and cold water faucets located within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the
hot and cold water fill valves, and water pressure of 5-100 psi
(34.5-689.6 kPa).
The washer/dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where
it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
Do not operate your washer in temperatures at or below 32ºF
(0ºC). Some water can remain in the washer and can cause
damage in low temperatures. See “Washer/Dryer Care” in the
Washer/Dryer User Instructions for information on winterizing.
Do not operate your dryer at temperatures below 45°F (7°C). At
lower temperatures, the dryer might not shut off at the end of an
automatic cycle. This can result in longer drying times.
Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,
installation of the washer/dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes,
or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
Installation Clearances
The location must be large enough to allow the dryer door to open
fully.
Washer/Dryer Dimensions
*Most installations require a minimum 5" (12.7 cm) clearance
behind the dryer for the exhaust vent with elbow. See “Venting
Requirements.”
Installation spacing for recessed area or closet installation
The following spacing dimensions are recommended for this
washer/dryer. This washer/dryer has been tested for spacing of 0"
(0 cm) clearance on the sides. Recommended spacing should be
considered for the following reasons:
■
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
■
Additional clearances might be required for wall, door and
floor moldings.
■
Additional spacing on all sides of the laundry center is
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
