WASHER LOCATION
The washer must be installed on firm flooring
to minimize vibration during the spin cycle.
Concrete flooring is best, but a wood floor
is sufficient, provided floor support meets
FHA standards. The washer should not be
installed on rugs or exposed to weather.
Minimum clearance between washer and
adjacent walls or other surfaces:
• 0” either side
• 2” front
• 3” rear
Minimum vertical space from floor to
overhead shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc.,
is 52”.

an alcove or closet, as stated on a label on
the back of the machine.

adjacent walls or other surfaces:
• 0” either side
• 2” front
• 3” rear
Minimum vertical space from floor to
overhead shelves, cabinets, ceilings, etc.,
is 52”.
Closet doors must be louvered or otherwise
ventilated and have at least 60 square inches
of open area for washer only, or if the closet
contains both a washer and a dryer, door
must contain at least 120 square inches of
open area equally distributed. Air openings
are required to be unobstructed when a door
