ELECTRIC DRYER INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Location Requirements
Your dryer can be installed in a basement, laundry room, or
recessed area.
Companion appliance location requirements should also be
considered.
IMPORTANT: Do not install or store the dryer where it
will be exposed to the weather. Proper installation is your
responsibility.
You will need:
A grounded electrical outlet located within 6 ft. (1.8 m) of
■
where the power cord is attached to the back of the dryer.
See "Electrical Requirements."
A level floor with a maximum slope of 1" (25 mm) under
■
entire dryer. Installing the dryer on soft floor surfaces,
such as carpets or surfaces with foam backing, is not
recommended.
Electric dryer installation clearances
The location must be large enough to allow the dryer door
■
to be fully opened.
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
■
installation and servicing. The door opens more than 180°.
Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, and
■
floor moldings.
Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the dryer is
■
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions
This dryer may be installed in a recessed area or closet. For
recessed area and closet installations, minimum clearances
can be found on the warning label on the rear of the dryer
or in "Dimensions/Clearances."
The installation spacing is in inches and is the minimum
allowable. Additional spacing should be considered for ease
of installation, servicing, and compliance with local codes and
ordinances.
If closet door is installed, the minimum unobstructed air
opening in the top and bottom is required. Louvered doors
with equivalent air openings are acceptable.
