To ensure sufficient clearance for water lines and airflow, allow
minimum clearances of at least 1 in. (2.5 cm) at the sides and
4 in. (10 cm) behind the unit. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or
floor moldings that may increase the required clearances.
Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead
shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc., is 56 in.
