Installation in a Recess or Closet

DO NOT INSTALL THE WASHER:
1. In an area exposed to dripping water or outside
weather conditions. The ambient temperature
should never be below 60°F (15.6° C) to
maximize detergent effectiveness.
2. In an area (garage or garage-type building)
where gasoline or other flammables (including
automobiles) are kept or stored.
3. Floor MUST be solid with a maximum slope
of 1 inch (2.54 cm). To minimize vibration or
movement, reinforcement of the floor may be
necessary.
If washer and dryer are installed in the same closet,
door ventilation is required: A minimum of 120 square
inches (774.2 cm²) of opening, equally divided at the top
and bottom of the door, is required. Louvered openings
should be located 3 inches (7.6 cm) from bottom and top
of door. Air openings are required to be unobstructed
when a door is installed. A louvered door with equivalent
air openings for the full length of door is acceptable.
