“I have existing hot/cold water line connections for my washer. Can the pedestal washer be linked in with the main washer on the same lines or would it require having a plumber out to create a separate dedicated set of connections and valves?”

The LG 29 in. 1.0 cu. ft. SideKick Pedestal Washer in Graphite Steel, Model # WD200CV installs beneath your LG front load washer, just like a regular pedestal. It has its own power cord that plugs into a standard 120V/60 Hz household outlet, so there’s no need for special wiring. You also won’t need separate water or drain lines—the SideKick™ washer includes two Y-connectors for the hot and cold water lines, a third Y-connector for the drain and the necessary hoses to install the SideKick™ in concert with your LG front load washer. The SideKick™ and your front load washer operate independently, so you can wash one load in hot and one load in cold at the same time. You can also start or stop a cycle or open the door on either washer without interrupting the other. It offers six distinct cycles. Each cycle offers a unique combination of wash motions, water temperatures, rinse cycles and spin speeds that is ideally suited for the different types of loads. Depending on the cycle you choose, the LG SideKick™ washer automatically employs one of three wash motions, WaveForce,™ Rubbing or Swinging, to ensure optimal cleaning performance for all of your smaller loads. Just like any other washer, simply lift the lid and load clothes into the tub, making sure to avoid overloading. Use the detergent cup that comes with the washer to add the correct amount of liquid or powder HE detergent and then close the lid. Press the Power button and select your desired cycle, press Start/Pause and slide the drawer back into the frame. ^CP
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.the installers put in a "y" adapter to connect to the washer and the sidekick.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.you don't need to add connections, your installer needs to get the right parts to connect the appliance so have Best Buy sell you those. The bottom unit connects to the upper unit and you only need your existing connection for this to work. hope this helps
