C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS
Even though a 12-inch (30.48 cm) clearance is acceptable, it is recommended that the rear of the dryer be
positioned approximately 3 feet (0.91 meters) from the nearest obstruction (i.e., wall) for ease of installation,
maintenance, and service. Bulkheads and partitions should be made from noncombustible materials. The
clearance between the bulkhead header and the dryer must be a minimum of 4-inches (10.16 cm) and must not
extend more than 4-inches (10.16 cm) to the rear of the dryer front. The bulkhead facing must not be closed in
ALL the way to the top of the dryer. A 2-inch (5.08 cm) clearance is required.
NOTE: Bulkhead facing should not be installed until after dryer is in place. Ceiling area must be
located a minimum of 12-inches (30.48 cm) above the top of the dryer. Even though a
minimum of only 12-inches (30.48 cm) is required, 18-inches (45.72 cm) or more is suggested
for steam dryers and especially in cases where sprinkler heads are over the dryers.
NOTE: When fire sprinkler systems are located above the dryers, a minimum of 18-inches (45.72 cm)
above the dryer console (module) is suggested. Dryers may be positioned sidewall to
sidewall; however, 1 or 2-inches (2.54 cm or 5.08 cm) is suggested between dryers (or wall)
for ease of installation and maintenance. Allowances must be made for the opening and
closing of the control and lint doors.
D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS
When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the basket (tumbler), and
exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If the
make-up air is inadequate, drying time and drying efficiency
will be adversely affected. Ignition problems and sail
switch “fluttering” problems may result, as well as premature motor failure from overheating.
