Of course the dryer vent box needs to be at the right height. But I see it get missed all the time. For a stacked set, it's typically 40 inches from the floor to the bottom of the box. Most washers are about 36 to 40 inches tall, and most dryer vents are right at the bottom of the dryer. Your dryer decides the exact number. Pull the specs (dimensions) to make sure that hose fits right inside the box or it's all for nothing. I see the same mistake on side by side washer and dryers. The box is a little too high and the hose now pushes the dryer out. So frustrating! Ask your builder what height the dryer box is going in at, and if it's based on your actual dryer stacked. Say something before drywall. After that, moving it means cutting the wall open. This is exactly the kind of detail in my Ultimate Home Building Checklist. Know your options before you build. #BuilderBrigade #HomeBuildingChecklist #laundryroom #stackablewasherdryer #newbuild
