Selecting the proper location for your washer improves performance and minimizes noise and possible washer "walk."
Your washer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, closet, or recessed area. (See "Drain System.")

exposed to the weather.
Proper installation is your responsibility.
You will need:
•A water heater set to deliver 120°F (49°C) water to the washer.
•A grounded electrical outlet located within 4 ft (1.2 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
•A level floor with a maximum slope of 1 in. (2.5 cm) under
entire washer. Installing the washer on carpeting is not recommended.
•A sturdy floor to support the washer weight (washer, water and load) of 315 Ibs (143 kgs).
