Dryers installed in garage must be installed at least 18 inches above the floor?
Posted On: September 27, 2023

I just ordered a washer/dryer set from Costco. I read through the product listings but when I got the confirmation email it says " Dryers installed in garage must be installed at least 18 inches above the floor." 18"?? Is this just a safety precaution fearing water in the garage or something else? Can I just use smaller risers like this and be ok?


We ordered a LG 5.5 cu. ft. Top Load Washer with TurboWash3D and 7.3 cu. ft. ELECTRIC Dryer with EasyLoad Door.


Thanks in advance!.
