A laundry treating apparatus includes a cabinet, a drum, a motor disposed at a rear of the drum, and a base that is disposed below the drum and defines a space configured to guide air circulating to the drum. The base includes an air circulating channel, a heat exchanger, a water collector body, a cleaning water channel, a pump, a channel switching valve, and a nozzle cover. The channel switching valve is connected to the pump and receives water from the pump and delivers the water to the cleaning water channel. The nozzle cover covers the cleaning water channel. The channel switching valve is coupled to the nozzle cover. The channel switching valve includes a water receiving portion connected to the pump and a connective portion connected to the water receiving portion. The connective portion is integrally formed with the nozzle cover to avoid leak of water.
