Space must be large enough to allow door to fully open. Add spacing on all sides of dryer to reduce noise transfer. If a closet door or louvered door is installed, top and bottom air openings in door are required. Check code requirements. Some codes limit, or do not permit, installation of the dryer in garages, closets, mobile homes, or sleeping quarters. Contact your local building inspector.  \nDryer Dimensions  \nFront View  \n1/2\"  \n(13 mm)  \nNOTE: Minimum height of leveling legs should be 1/2\" (13 mm), or high enough for dryer to match the height of the accompanying washer.  \nA.
