As with any other Gas Dryer, regardless of brand or manufacturer, if you are installing the LG 7.4 Cu. Ft. Stackable Smart Gas Dryer with Steam and Built-In Intelligence - Black steel, Model # DLGX4001B, in a garage, you will need to place the dryer at least 18 inches (45.7 cm) above the floor. You will need 18 inches (45.7 cm) from the garage floor to the bottom of the dryer. The requirement for gas dryers to be installed at least 18 inches above the garage floor is a safety measure to prevent contact with flammable materials. This is particularly important in garages where gasoline or other flammable liquids may be stored or used. The National Fuel Gas Code mandates that any source of ignition, such as a gas dryer, must be elevated to ensure safety. However, if the dryer is listed as "flammable vapor ignition resistant" (FVIR), it is not required to be elevated. This dryer is NOT listed as "flammable vapor ignition resistant" (FVIR). It is essential to check local building codes and regulations to ensure compliance with these safety standards...^Ivan.
