Can the washer drain be too high?

17 years ago

We just moved into an apartment and purchased a Frontloading Samsung washer and dryer (not sure of the model they are at home). The drain p-trap/standpipe(?) ties into the main sanitary about 72" inches off of the floor, this is where will need to connect the washer. The installer says it is too high and will burn out the pump. Anythoughts?
