A:Answer LG does not make any dishwashers that are designed for outdoor use. Like most, if not all dishwashers, the LG 24" Front-Control Built-In Dishwasher with Stainless Steel Tub, QuadWash™, 48 dBa - PrintProof™ Stainless Steel, Model # LDF5545SS is designed for installation under standard kitchen cabinets. It has to be hardwired to a dedicated, properly grounded branch circuit which is protected by a 15 A (minimum) time delay fuse or circuit breaker rated at 120 VAC, 60Hz. f an outlet and a three-prong power cord is used, it should be in an accessible location adjacent to and not behind the dishwasher and within 4 ft (1.2 m) of the dishwasher's side. The dishwasher must be connected to a to a hot water supply with a temperature range between 120 °F (49 °C) and 149 °F (65 °C). This temperature range provides the best washing results and shortest cycle time. To prevent damage to dishes, the temperature should not exceed 149 °F (65 °C). You will need to follow local codes and ordinances for the drain and you should not exceed 12 feet (3.65 m) distance to the drain. If an extension drain hose is required, use 5/8" or 7/8" inside diameter, 2-3 ft. length hose and a coupler for connecting the two hose ends...^IFV
