Have a landmark Arlington with splendide stackable w/d factory installed. It's in closet next to shower. Any idea if vent hose is long enough to remove dryer as I cant get behind it without it all way out of closet. It's under warranty but I may have to do replacement myself as we're in an area without RV dealers or mobile repair.

How did you guys remove the dryer then the washer out of the closet we think the pump is shot?
This thread I'd five years old I don't know if you will get a reply from the OP.
But you will most likely have to remove the doors from the w/d closet.
If you have the Splendide brand then remove the plastic panel on the bottom front to reveal the attacking hardware.
You will figure it out from there.
Peace
Dave

On our 2011, which had stacked Splendide units from the factory, there were brackets on either side holding the washer and dryer together. Removing the one closest to the exterior wall was difficult. A very small rachet driver did the trick.
The dryer is pretty easy to move as it's very light weight. The washer is much harder as it's quite heavy. Put heavy cardboard across the bed and you can slide/drag it across.
And yes, the doors to the washer/dryer had to come off. On our 2011, the path from bedroom to kitchen went through 2 pocket doors in and out of the bathroom. I'm not sure we could have gone directly out the bedroom door and down the steps.
It may be possible to tilt the washer on its back to work on it, after the dryer is out of the way.

On our 2017 Charleston, no door removal necessary. And the clips holding it are front and back. Hubby and can get it in and out but cussing is a given.

Removed three screws the dryer will move side to side but there is not enough room to lift it up and out because of the shelf above it as in the picture 1031 can not see any screws how to take out the shelf?
To remove that shelf you will need to remove the "floor" of the shelf. It's held on by small staples. Take a fine blade and pry it up.
Once removed you will see screws holding the shelf to the wall.
I have some pics somewhere from when I removed my shelf.
I will look for and post them if you want.

Hey Dave. pics are good. I was just looking to see if I buy a small slide hammer perhaps with a small screw in to the wood out of site and pull yes?

I installed the new pump in the washer but this one still makes the same noise when on empty is that normal? no grinding sound now though.
