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 unit.

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

Leveling legs can be adjusted from inside the dryer unit with a 1/4" driver. All four legs must rest firmly on the floor so the weight of the dryer is evenly distributed.

The dryer unit must not rock.

Installation

IMPORTANT: Unless completely assembled, DO NOT slide the dryer unit across the floor. DO NOT slide the unit once the leveling legs have been extended, as the legs and the base could become damaged.

The dryer unit needs sufficient clearance and an adequate air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for easier installation and servicing. (Minimum clearances are shown in Figure 21).
