Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit,
installing dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping
quarters. Contact your local building inspector.
DRYER DIMENSIONS
LOCATION REQUIREMENTS
You will need:
A location allowing for proper exhaust installation. See ■
“Venting Requirements.”
A separate 30 amp circuit. ■
If using power supply cord, a grounded electrical outlet ■
located within 2 ft. (610 mm) of either side of dryer. See
“Electrical Requirements.”
Floor must support dryer weight of 200 lbs. (90.7 kg). Also ■
consider weight of companion appliance.
Level oor with maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under entire ■
dryer. If slope is greater than 1" (25 mm), install Extended
Dryer Feet Kit, Part Number 279810. If not level, clothes
may not tumble properly and automatic sensor cycles may
not operate correctly.
For a garage installation, place dryer at least 18" (457 mm) ■
above oor. If using a pedestal, you will need 18" (457 mm)
to bottom of dryer.
Steam models only: Cold water faucets located within 4 ft. ■
(1.2 m) of the water ll valves, and water pressure of 20-100
psi (137.9-689.6 kPa). You may use the water supply for your
washer using the “Y” connector and short hose (if needed)
which are provided.
For each arrangement, consider allowing more space for ease
of installation and servicing; spacing for companion appliances
and clearances for walls, doors, and oor moldings. Space
must be large enough to allow door to fully open. Add spacing
on all sides of dryer to reduce noise transfer. If a closet door
or louvered door is installed, top and bottom air openings
in door are required.
IMPORTANT: Do not operate, install, or store dryer where
it will be exposed to water, weather, or at temperatures below
45° F (7° C). Lower temperatures may cause dryer not to
shut off at end of automatic sensor cycles, resulting in longer
drying times.
INSTALLATION CLEARANCES
Location must be large enough to allow dryer door to open fully.
NOTE: Most installations require a minimum of 5" (127 mm)
clearance behind dryer for exhaust vent with elbow. See “Venting
Requirements.”
