Location Requirements

Select a location with a solid floor. Dryers installed in residential garages must be elevated 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor.

No other fuel burning appliance should be installed in the same closet with the dryer.

The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

Installation

Leveling legs can be adjusted from inside the dryer with a 1/4 inch driver. All four legs must rest firmly on the floor so the weight of the dryer is evenly distributed. The dryer must not rock.

The dryer needs sufficient clearance and an adequate air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for easier installation and servicing. (Minimum clearances are shown below.)
