A:Answer Hi there! Thank you for your question about the WT7405CV washer and the installation process. While connecting the hoses might seem straightforward, there are a few important considerations to ensure everything is set up correctly and safely. Make sure the water supply valves are easily accessible for connecting the hot and cold water hoses securely to prevent leaks. It's also crucial to position the drain hose properly to avoid water backflow, securing it in place without submerging it. Additionally, leveling the washer is essential to prevent excessive vibrations during operation, so adjust the washer’s feet accordingly. If your washer is electric, ensure the power outlet is nearby and that the washer is plugged in safely. While many customers can install the washer themselves, opting for professional installation can provide peace of mind and ensure everything is set up correctly, especially if you're unfamiliar with appliance installations. If you decide to go with the installation service, it can help you avoid any potential issues down the line.
