LG Front Load Dryer - Installation (2018 Update)

Welcome to an LG support video. Here, we will cover how to install both an electric and gas dryer. It is important that you review the entire user's manual before installing and using your machine. Detailed instructions concerning electrical connections, gas connections, and exhaust requirements are provided in the owner's manual.

LG manual lacks clarity on the gas connection. The dryer is equipped with a 3/8" M.NPT connection. I had to wait to receive the dryer, then look at the unit to find out if its male or female. I could have bought the parts ahead of time. LG should have specified the connection correctly, saying " 3/8" NPT" doesn't mean much when it could be male or female.

Why is there no information on the location of the dryer vent? height of vent from floor to center line, and / or location center line on horizontal?

How can you post an install video and don’t show the vent hook up?

Where did you get that NPT fitting from?

The screw for the power connection is impossible to remove on my new LG dryer. Yall had the Hulk tighten that mess. I’m going to have to destroy the screw to remove it.

Lol, HORRIBLE install video...where’s the use of Teflon Tape or dope compound around the gas connections? Where do you get the couplers, like come on. The most important things you should be showing people in the video is that, FAIL
