No, but you will need to connect it to a water supply.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi there! We understand your inquiry about the LG 7.3 cu ft Smart Electric Dryer with Steam and EasyLoad Door (Model DLEX8600BE) and whether a washer is required to use the steam feature. Great news—you do not need a washer to take advantage of the dryer’s steam functions. Your DLEX8600BE comes equipped with its own SteamFresh and SteamSanitary cycles and uses a dedicated fill hose (sold separately or plumbed to your water line) to supply water directly to the dryer’s steam reservoir. There’s no dependency on the matching washer (WT8600CB) for steam operation. Troubleshooting Step: Before running a steam cycle, ensure your water fill hose is properly connected and the shut-off valve is fully open. Select the SteamFresh cycle on the control panel, then press Start—you should hear the water fill click before steam generation begins. If you notice weak steam output, check that the fill hose isn’t kinked and clean the water inlet filter to remove any debris. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-7-3-cu-ft-smart-electric-dryer-with-steam-and-easyload-door-matte-black/6573549.p?skuId=6573549 If you’d like further assistance setting up your steam connection or troubleshooting performance, please send us a private message on social media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to guide you through each step.
