C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible materials and must be located a minimum of

12-inches (30.48 cm) above the dryer’s outer top; except along the front of the dryer which may be closed if

desired.

NOTE: Allowances must be made for opening the control door.

NOTE: Air considerations are important for proper and efficient operation.

Dryers may be positioned sidewall to sidewall. However, a 1/16” (1.5875 mm) minimum allowance must be

made for opening and closing of the control door and the lint door. It is suggested that the dryer be positioned

about 2 feet (0.61 meters) away from the nearest obstruction for ease of installation, maintenance, and service

(to be measured from the back guard). Refer to the illustration above for details.

X = 12-inch (30.48 cm) minimum, 24-inches (60.96 cm) is suggested for ease of maintenance.
