A:AnswerHi Grand- Thanks for viewing GE! Our Unitized Spacemaker® Washer and Electric Dryer GUD27ESSMWW requires 240V or 208V single-phase 60 Hz electrical service and should be protected by 30-amp time-delay fuses or circuit breakers KW Rating per voltage (240/208). The figure 120/240 simply means one side of the 240 line operates the motor and 240 operates the heaters. If you try to operate on 120 volts only, the heaters will not work efficiently to dry the load. Check out the Quick Specs at the following link: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=GUD27ESSM_27GSSM_C3_17.pdf - Thanks for checking with us!

A:AnswerHi CarolF- We can provide the average water usage. The minimum is 12 gallons and maximum is 22 gallons. We suggest to view the diagram on page 11 of the Owner's Manual regarding water levels: http://products.geappliances.com/MarketingObjectRetrieval/Dispatcher?RequestType=PDF&Name=49-90581-2.pdf - New models must meet energy guidelines, so they use less water than in the past. The water may not cover the top level of the clothes. This is normal operation. The water fill is optimized by the system for best wash performance. Also, WiFi Connect requires Optional Module PBX10W00Y0 (sold separately). Learn more at: http://www.geappliances.com/ge/connected-appliances/washer-dryer-laundry.htm - Thanks for viewing GE! SUE@GEA
A:AnswerThese two models are the same except for the dryer fuel source. Model GUD27GSSMWW has a gas dryer and model GUD27ESSMWW has an electric dryer. Lauren@GEAppliances
A:AnswerThe machine has multiple cycles, so it will depend on the cycle you choose and the size of the load. For example, I frequently use the medium setting for colors, with a large load and deep rinse. This usually takes 45 minutes to an hour.
A:AnswerHi there - Some start-up squeak is normal. The sound should go away after the first few seconds of operation. If the sound continues, we recommend you contact service. You can reach us directly via the GE Appliances website or social media. We hope this helps. -Gina@GEA
A:AnswerHi there, and thanks for reaching out to us about this laundry center! We appreciate your interest and are glad to assist. The amount of time it takes to complete a wash cycle will vary based on load size, the cycle you select, etc. The maximum amount of time will be about 50 to 62 minutes. We hope this information is useful, and are glad to assist if you have any other concerns or questions. All the best! -Sarah@GEA
A:AnswerRecently purchased mine. I don’t recall a ding going off when it’s finished. Not sure exactly what you mean by audible. You cannot voice commands into this one if that’s what you’re looking for. Hope this helps.
A:AnswerHi Clb1051, thanks for your question! This is something that cannot be altered on this model as there is no end of cycle signal for the washer or the dryer. We hope this helps and that you're staying safe. -Michael@GEA
A:AnswerHi Norman! We appreciate your question. The drain hose is approximately 70" long. Insert the drain hose in a standpipe with an inside diameter of at least 1-1/2". We hope this helps! Emily@GEA
