Location Requirements
You will need
A location that allows for proper exhaust installation. A gas
washer/dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors. See
“Venting Requirements.”
A grounded electrical outlet located within 2 ft (610 mm) 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" (25 mm) 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 winterizing information.
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.
NOTE: No other fuel-burning appliance can be installed in the
same closet as a dryer.
Installation Clearances
The location must be large enough to allow the dryer door
to open fully.
