Put your dryer on your washing machine: advantages and disadvantages
Place your dryer on your washing machine so that it is easy and safe
Before you start, you have to take into account certain things so that your project is working properly and also so that there is no problem in the event of damage - especially if you refer to your insurance company.Because some refuse to take care of damage when minimum safety conditions have not been respected.Of course, it is not possible to simply superimpose your dryer directly on your washing machine.Because then the two devices could break down very quickly.In the event of a claim, there is a high probability that you will be financially injured or even left behind, because your insurance would not have to pay due to inadequate security measures.So invest time and properly install your dryer on your washing machine.What do you need to put your dryer on your washing machine?
Often included in the delivery, rubber shock absorbers are glued to the washing machine, in which the feet of the dryer generally adapt exactly - provided, of course, that you have measured the shock absorbers and the feet of the dry-Light in advance.
A connection frame or an intermediate frame is generally screwed directly to the top of the washing machine so that your dryer can then be inserted using rails.Although there are universal frames for all models, you can use a special manufacturer's frame so that everything is adapting exactly.
Maybe you already have a non-slip carpet under your washing machine so that it cannot move due to vibrations during spin?This carpet can also be used optimally to keep the dryer stable on your washing machine.Of course, the dryer is not protected from a possible lateral tilting.
Does all the dryers go on all washing machines?
The devices that overlap are those which can bear the weight of each other and which have corresponding dimensions.If your dryer has a larger width than that of your washing machine, then you cannot overlap because the support is not secure.Also check that your washing machine is placed on uniform soil.You can easily do it with a bubble level.Because the washing machine must of course be placed flat so that on the one hand it cannot move and on the other hand you can place a dryer on it in complete safety.Obviously, make sure that your washing machine has a front charger, that is to say that it can be filled by the front.If you have a loading machine from above, of course, no other device can be placed on it.It is generally advisable to stack two devices from the same mark on each other.Because these are generally the same size and often include fixing equipment.It is also practical not to have to contact several manufacturers if you have any questions or problems.
Can I also put a washing machine on a dryer?
Due to the strong vibrations caused by a washing machine during spin, it should not be placed on a dryer.
How do you know if your washing machine can bear weight?
Manufacturers generally indicate in the user manual of a washing machine if it can support the weight of a second device or if the device is suitable for placing a dryer there.So find out in advance to find out if your washing machine is suitable and what is the weight of the dryer you can place on it.
In short, how to properly place your dryer above your washing machine?
Once you have checked the size and weight of your dryer and your washing machine is on a flat surface, nothing is opposed to your project.The most appropriate method to place the dryer on your washing machine is probably the superposition kit - preferably obtained directly from the manufacturer.Because this variant is particularly safe and stable thanks to the rail system and prevents any involuntary switch.
