A:AnswerAdding steam to a wash cycle helps provide superior cleaning performance. Using steam gives
fabrics the cleaning benefits of a very hot wash. Steam may not be clearly visible during steam
cycles. This is normal. Too much steam could damage clothing. Do not use steam with delicate fabrics such as wool and silk, or easily discolored fabrics. ^Daphane

A:AnswerIntegrated water heater offers built-in heating elements to enable your wash water to consistently reach higher temperatures than your household water heater can deliver.

A:AnswerThe carton mine came in said "Made in Korea". But, LG also has a large factory in the US for making washing machines.
There is a drain filter that protects the pump. It is easily cleaned out via a rectangular access door on the front of the machine. A clog before this pump can cause all sorts of problems, so if the machine starts to malfunction, this is a good thing to check. You may avoid needing a repair tech.
Here is an LG video that shows the process: https://youtu.be/5Ty3bVhR5iM
It's easy to do but if you are good about emptying pockets of coins and the other kinds of things that can make it to this filter, you may find you almost never need to clean it.
A:AnswerNo, the unit needs to be vented. The exhaust duct must be 4 '' (10 cm) in diameter with no obstructions. The total length of flexible metal duct must not exceed 8 ft. (2.4 m). ^Daphane
A:AnswerYes, there is a dry flat option available via the LG ThinQ app. Install the rack and choose the "Rack Dry" cycle from ThinQ & select "send to product" and the dryer will respond it's ready to go--hit the Start button.

A:AnswerThank you for your interest in the LG WashTower. To ensure a smooth installation of your LG WashTower WKE100HVA when it arrives, there are a few important items and steps to keep in mind.
1. Plumbing Connections
• Water Hoses: You will need hot and cold water supply hoses to connect the washer to your plumbing. If they're not included with your unit, be sure to buy them separately
• Drain Hose: The washer comes with a drain hose, but check if it reaches your drainage system. You may need additional extensions.
2. Electrical Requirements
• Power Outlet: Make sure you have a dedicated 4-prong electrical outlet near the unit for the dryer.
• Power Cord: If the washer/dryer doesn't come with a power cord, you’ll need to purchase one that meets the dryer’s specifications.
3. Installation Tools
• Level Tool: You'll need a level to ensure the washer/dryer is properly balanced, as this helps prevent noise and vibration.
• Wrench or Pliers: These tools will help you tighten the connections for the water supply hoses.
4. Space Considerations
• Measurements: Measure the area where you intend to place the WashTower to ensure it fits comfortably (check height, width, and depth).
• Ventilation: If your dryer requires venting, make sure you have an appropriate venting system in place. You might need additional ductwork if it’s not already set up.
5. Additional Accessories
• Anti-Vibration Pads: Consider getting these to reduce noise and movement during use.
• Laundry Supplies: Don't forget to grab some laundry detergent, fabric softener, and dryer sheets for your first loads!
Following these steps will help ensure a successful installation of your new WashTower!
