Options
Pedestal
Are you placing the dryer on a pedestal? You have the option of
purchasing pedestals of different heights separately for this dryer.
You may select a 10" (25.4 cm) or 15.5" (39.4 cm) pedestal.
These pedestals will add to the total height of the dryer for a total
height of approximately 48" (121.9 cm) or 53.5" (135.9 cm),
respectively.
For a garage installation, you will need to place the 10" (25.4 cm)
pedestal at least 9" (22.9 cm) above the floor and the
15.5" (39.4 cm) pedestal at least 3.5" (8.9 cm) above the floor.
The pedestals are available in several colors.
