Location Requirements
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.

■
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" (25 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.
