Installation spacing for recessed area and closet
installations
The following spacing dimensions shown are recommended
when the dryer is to be operated with, or without, the Stack Kit.
This dryer has been tested for installation with spacing of
0" (0 cm) clearance; however, spacing of 1" (2.5 cm) clearance is
recommended. Recommended spacing should be considered for
the following reasons:
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the
dryer to reduce noise transfer.
For closet installation with a door, minimum ventilation
openings in the top and bottom of the door are required.
Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation opening are
acceptable.
Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.
To purchase a Stack Kit, see "Assistance or Service."
