Q: Can you bypass the bulk detergent dispenser to add a different detergent for a single load?
A: Yes, the bulk detergent dispenser simply lifts out and you can put in whatever detergent you wish.
A: Electro-mechanical controls were used in the past before computerized devices. An Electro-mechanical control is a rotary multi selector switch operated by a small timer motor, it can also be advanced manually by turning the selector knob. Normally the selector knob can only be turned clockwise. The switch was reliable and not subject to all the electro statics that blow up computing devices. The quantity of failure points for the mechanical switch is about 10,000 less failure points, but each device has about a 100 year life versus the switch components that each may have a 15 year life. Expect a switch to last 25 years and the computer control device to last about 5 years..
Q: What are the dimensions- height, width, depth.
A: The dimensions are 27''W x 33 5/16''D x 39 3/4''H.
A: To turn the light off after washing, you push the on/off button to turn the power off and the light goes out with the door open. We leave our door open as well.
A: No. The washer works on electric power. However, the dryer can be purchased as an electric or gas option.
Q: Does this washer have the add clothes feature?
A: You have to pause the cycle to add clothes.
A: Hi Jamie, thank you for you inquiry. Like any appliance that relies on water to do it's job, there is a chance for mold or mildew to accumulate. However, we have found that leaving the door open after a cycle is complete and frequent cleanings help reduce or eliminate this problem all together. We hope this helps!
Q: Does this particular washer model have a "direct drive" motor?
A: dabs, model WFW92HEFC has a direct drive motor. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!
