*Most installations require a minimum 5½" (14.0 cm) clearance behind the dryer for the exhaust vent with elbows. See “Venting Requirements.”

Installation spacing for recessed area and closet installations

The following spacing dimensions shown are recommended when the dryer is to be operated with, or without, the Stack Kit. This dryer has been tested for installation with spacing of

0" (0 cm) clearance; however, spacing of 1" (2.5 cm) clearance is recommended. Recommended spacing should be considered for the following reasons:

Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.

Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the dryer to reduce noise transfer.

For closet installation with a door, minimum ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation opening are acceptable.

Companion appliance spacing should also be considered. To purchase a Stack Kit, see “Assistance or Service.”
