Stack Kit
Are you planning to stack your washer and dryer? To do so you
will need to purchase a Stack Kit.
To order, call the dealer from whom you purchased your washer or
refer to the "Assistance or Service" section. Ask for Part Number

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.
You will need
• 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 Ibs. (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.
