Question posted by merleswd on April 21st, 2012

Maintenance

Nearly all of the reviews that I have read give the 2140 5 stars. However two have said that the manual says that you have to drain it twice a year and that this involves pulling it out from the wall. I have downladed the manual and can find no mention of this. As I an stacking the washer and dryer I can't imagine trying to pul it out from the wall

You do not HAVE to drain it, but is an option. The manual does not mention it, so the people who posted the review may have read the wrong one.
