Installation Requirements
Water supply requirements
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be
installed within 42 inches (107 cm) of your
washer's water inlet. The faucets MUST
be 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) with threading for
laundry hose connection. Water pressure
MUST be between 10 psi (0.69 bars) and
120 psi (8.27 bars). Pressure difference
between hot and cold cannot be more
than 10 psi. Your water department can
advise you of your water pressure.
NOTE
Washers connected to water supplies
with lower inlet pressure will experi-
ence longer filling times and may not
complete cycles as quickly.
Drain system requirements
1. Drain capable of eliminating 17 gals
(64.3 L) per minute.
2. A standpipe diameter of 1-1/4 in.
(3.18 cm) minimum.
3. Standpipe height above the floor
should be:
Minimum height: 33 in. (84 cm)
Maximum height: 96 in. (244 cm)
NOTE
For installations requiring a longer
drain hose, have a qualified technician
install a longer drain hose (according to
your model number) available from an
authorized parts distributor. For drain
systems in the floor, install a syphon
break kit available from your local
hardware store.

Exhaust system requirements
Use only 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid
or flexible metal duct and approved vent
hood which has a swing-out damper(s)
that open when the dryer is in operation.
When the dryer stops, the dampers
automatically close to prevent drafts and
the entrance of insects and rodents. To
avoid restricting the outlet, maintain a
minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance
between the vent hood and the ground or
any other obstruction.
