Inlet Hose Installation - Washing Machine

  • Installation

Always use new hoses when installing your washer. DO NOT reuse old hoses. You can use LG inlet hoses or aftermarket hoses available through most appliance retailers. Flood safe hoses may interrupt water supply and cause an IE error code.

  1. Insert a rubber seal into the threaded fitting on each hose.

  2. Attach the hot water line to the red hot water inlet on the back of the washer and the cold water line to the blue cold water inlet. Tighten the fittings so that they are secure.

  4. Water supply pressure must be between 14.5 PSI and 116 PSI. If the water supply pressure is more than 116 PSI, a pressure reducing valve must be installed.

    NOTE: The washer requires both a hot and cold water supply to be attached. The water supply for the hot water valve should be at least 120°F.
