My new home has a 4 wire plug 30A. My Heat Pump Dryer uses a lot less than the standard dryer. Can I use the 30A circuit or does the fuse need to be lowered as the dryer uses less (240v and 10A is what is recommended for my dryer).
My installers removed the cap in the valve which you said "Do not install the drain hose on this valve" and it seems it leaks at the end of the dryer cycle when the dryer gets rid of condenser water buildup. Is there a way I can order that cap for the valve?

ThT valve where you say "do not install the hose here", what is it? I got this last week and it's dumping all the water out of that part instead of the hose. I see yours has a cap. Mine does not. Lg didn't know what it was, but they're coming to inspect Tuesday. This is so frustrating.

@lanternafilm yes! We found the issue. When home depot installed my machine, they removed the cap from the valve where he said "don't install here". LG overnighted me two caps and I ran two loads of laundry today and it worked perfectly!
How much clearance does there need to be behind the dryer if it's NOT in an enclosed space? I'm installing tomorrow but the manual only states a minimum of 5 inches if it's enclosed.
Hi there! If the dryer is not installed in an enclosed space, the minimum clearance required behind the dryer is typically 4 inches. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) code states that clothes dryer exhaust ducts must be installed with a clearance of at least 6 inches from adjacent combustible material. However, this requirement is specifically for enclosed spaces like alcoves or closets. Most manufacturers recommend a minimum clearance of 4 inches behind dryers installed in open areas without enclosures for proper air circulation and ventilation. This allows sufficient space for the dryer vent connection and airflow. So, in your case, where the dryer is not being installed in an enclosed space, a minimum clearance of 4 inches behind the dryer should be sufficient unless your specific model's installation instructions state otherwise. Let me know if there's anything else we can help with! -Ken
Yes, this model does have a drain pump! If you have further questions, don't hesitate to reach out to us on social media (@LGUSSupport) or simply reply to this comment! ^Chris
Yes, you can place your LG washer and dryer on opposite sides of a closet or laundry room, but there are some important considerations, such as space and clearance, utility connections, and dryer venting. -Charles

Hi, Matthew. The model DLHC5502 has not yet been directly listed on the LG USA Support website. This is because it is a newly released LG model that received certification on 09/28/2023. We understand your interest in this specific model. Stay tuned for updates on the LG website regarding the release date of this model. In the meantime, we would like to recommend checking out the DLHC1455W model, which offers similar features.

Hey there, there is a drain hose and a power cord used to connect this LG Dryer. Should you have a model-specific question, don't hesitate to send us a private message on Twitter or Instagram @LGUSSupport with your model, serial, and phone number. ~TammyJo
@@LGUSASupport I'm referring to 0:28 of this video where it says "this is where we will NOT install the drain hose". What is that for? Our technician just installed the external drain hose into that today.
Hey there, let's look into this together in more detail. Please send us a private message at @LGUSSupport on Facebook or X with your model, serial, and phone number. We definitely want to see why your drain hose was installed at this valve and not the one stated in the video. ~TammyJo
@@LGUSASupport Just answer the question. It's model DLHC5502V - the same model this video is about. I just bought this dryer and even the manual that comes with it doesn't say what that is for.
