Q: QuestionDoes this model have less of a problem with mildew and mold than other LG models? I have to clean the detergent tray at least monthly and the inside of the washer tub and ring every single week. It's a lot of maintenance to keep the odor and mold out.

Asked 5 years ago by notsure.

• A:Answer Over time, residue may build up in the drum, leading to mildew or a musty odor. Run the Tub Clean cycle monthly to remove residue and prevent odor. Tub Clean is a special cycle designed to clean the inside of the washer. After you finish using the washer, leave the door open overnight to allow air to circulate and dry the drum. This helps prevent odors. ^Daphane

Q: QuestionHow many gallons of water are used in the wash and rinse cycles.

Asked 2 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Thank you for raising your concern regarding LG Front Load LG WashTower™ (WKGX201HBA) model. The water consumption of LG washing machines can vary based on the specific wash cycle and model. For example, the water usage of a different LG washing machine ranged from just over 7.5 gallons for the Speed Wash cycle to just over 23 gallons for the Bright Whites cycle. a different source mentioned that the water usage of an LG washer dryer combination is 12-15 gallons, which is significantly lower than that of some other washers. If problem persist, please reach out to us on social media @LGUSSupport so we can help you further. ^Cris

Q: QuestionWhat are gas dryer blower/venting specs? Using the formula, for every 45-degree elbow to add 2.5ft to the calculation, I come up with about 40 feet of 4" duct that we need to push air through. Thanks!

• A:Answer The answer given does not address my questions. Will this gas dryer push air through 40 feet of duct? The Samsung we are replacing is rated at nearly 55 feet. We have the WashTower scheduled for delivery and need to know the answer right away.

Q: QuestionDo you have specks on the venting location?

Asked 3 years ago by penny.

• A:Answer The gas version of this stackable has 2 options for venting. Rear venting and side venting. Because of the gas configuration only the left side has that option(looking at the LG head on from the front) because that’s where the gas line assembly is. On the electric dryer version there is no gas line assembly so you have 3 options-rear, left side and right side. All ducting is standard 4 inches. Lg has a kit for a small fortune…or you can piece together a generic ducting solution on parts anywhere from $5-$20. Venting codes are publicly posted. From what I can tell anything goes but you can actually vent your unit too short and violate that code.

Asked 2 years ago by Patti.

This question was asked about the related product: LG - 4.5 Cu. Ft. HE Smart Front Load Washer and 7.4 Cu. Ft. Gas Dryer WashTower with Steam and Built-In Intelligence - Nature Green
