Installing the Dryer

Step 1: Position and Level the Dryer

Install dryer before washer. This allows room for 

attaching exhaust duct.
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.
The dryers needs sufficient clearance and an adequate 

air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for 

easier installation and servicing. (Minimum clearances 

are shown below).
