Installing your washer Drain Samsung recommends a standpipe height of 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. Wooden floors may need to be reinforced to minimize vibrations and/or unbalanced loads. Carpeting and soft tile surfaces are contributing factors to vibrations and the tendency for your washer to move slightly during the spin cycle. Never install your washer on a platform or poorly supported structure. WARNING Surrounding temperature Do not install your washer in areas where water may freeze, since your washer always retain some water in the water valve, pump and hose areas. Frozen water in the lines can cause damage to the belts, the pump and other components. Alcove or closet installation To operate safely and properly, your new washer requires the following minimum clearances: Sides 1 in / 25 mm Rear 5.9 in / 150mm Top 17 in / 432 mm Front 2 in / 51 mm If both the washer and a dryer are installed together, the front of the alcove or closet must have an unobstructed air opening of at least 72 in² (465 cm²). Your washer by itself does not require a specific air opening. 1 in. (2.5 cm) 17 in. (43.2 cm) 1 in. (2.5 cm) 27 in. (68.6 cm) 27 in. (68.6 cm) Recessed area 1 in. (2.5 cm) 2 in. (5 cm) 34.1 in.
