The water factor used by the LG Washer Model # WT1101CW varies from load to load. The washer modifies the amount of water used, depending on the size of the load.

LG's SenseClean system is an intelligent fabric care technology. This system 'senses' the weight and size of the load, then determines the water level and wash time and sets it automatically resulting in optimal washing care and efficiency.

This washer also implements Automatic water level adjustment to use the most efficient amount based on the load size to provide water savings.

For further information, please feel free to contact LG Live Chat https://www.lg.com/us/support/message-customer-support or call LG Customer Service at (800) 243-0000.

Drain pipe height

My drain pipe is 32" tall and I can't tell the diameter, but it doesn't look 2" across. It is not a problem with my current machine which is 36.5" tall, but the LG is 40.5". Some of the comments I have read state this could be a problem. I will be buying a new washer and dryer as soon as next week. Should I be changing things out?

My drain pipe is much higher, maybe 6-8" above the top of this washer and everything connected just fine. Works well with everything that comes stock.

They are on mine. The bleach is in the left front corner as you look down in the machine & the fabric softener is on the left of the soap dispenser that is in the middle of the back of your tub. Did you receive an owner's manual ? ? ? Maybe you are really short like me so I keep a small stepstool in the kitchen at all times :) :) :)

The machine does have an automatic bleach dispenser for regular chlorine bleach. If you're using bleach for colors, like Clorox 2, you just add that to your detergent dispenser along with the detergent.

This washer is low profile and a drawer would be a nice addition although the drum is very deep and may cause some people with shorter arms and legs may want something to give them a slight lift.

Best Answer

You do not NEED a tray for any washer (unless its mandated in your apartment building or something) a tray is just insurance incase the machine leaks. So you just need to weigh out whether the cost of a tray is more than the threat of a leak. If your looking at a brand new machine the likelihood of a leak is very low unless you get a defective machine from the factory. (I havent heard sny reviews about this unit having defectice parts)Also if your machine is on a second floor and and a leak would damage rooms below that's a factor to consider. (My machine is in the basement and a leak would wreck anything)
Hope this helps.

depth required?

My washer has to fit into a closet space, and the maximum depth is 31 inches. How much space is required behind the washer for hoses, connections, etc? Will it fit in my space?

I have mine sitting as far back to the wall as I feel comfortable with and the input water hoses are what cause it to sit out the furthest. I have about 1-1.5 inches behind the 90 degree input hoses and the front is sitting almost exactly 32 inches from the wall. I would say you will be sitting at almost exactly 31 inches or maybe less than a half inch back from there if your hoses are touching the wall.

Dear Anonymous,
You can only buy stackable that are front loading with LG. But you can buy those small capacity GE, whirlpool, and brands like that. They're one unit with a top load washer on bottom and small dryer over top. They're good for tight spaces.

everytime I wash towels the washer leaks (continued)

received an answer from LG asking if the repairman checked the connections for the drain pipe and the water inlets. I have no idea. I know my husband had checked to make sure that the water lines (hot & cold) were connected correctly and not leaking. Is this the same thing as the water inlets??? When the repairman showed up (as stated on the original question) he said the machine was not level and also checked the bottom of the washer to see if there was any evidence of water leakage. Why would the drain pipe connections & water inlets be an issue on only loads with towels. Have not had any issues with other loads of wash. Thanks again

Hello Lynn.
The suggestions given in the previous response were given based on the information that was reported in your description of the problem. You had not mentioned that this was only happening only on loads with towels. Please contact our Customer Interactive Center (800) 243-0000 if you have not done so already and provide them with the name of the repair company that provided the initial service and any invoices or case numbers concerning the service that LG can reference...IFV
