Drain facility
The recommended height of the standpipe is 18 in (46 cm). The drain hose must be routed
through the drain hose clip to the standpipe. The standpipe must be large enough to accept the
outside diameter of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached at the factory.
Flooring
For best performance, your washer must be installed on a solidly constructed floor. Wood floor
may need to be reinforced to minimize vibration and/or unbalanced load situations. Carpeting
and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors in vibration and may cause your washer to move
slightly during the spin cycle.
Never install your washer on a platform or weakly supported structure.
Location consideration
Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always
maintain some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. This can cause damage to the
pump, hoses and other components.

Sides – 1 In.(2.5 cm)
Rear – 4 In.(10.2 cm)
Top – 17 In.(43.2 cm)
Closet Front – 2 In.(5.1 cm)
If the washer and dryer are installed together, the closet front must have at least 72 in²(465 cm²)
of an unobstructed air opening. Your washer alone does not require a specific air opening.
