Will it fit

Not included. These are cabinet figures. Manufacturers state a ventilation clearance per model in the installation instructions; a figure typed into the Clearance box applies to both sides, the back and the top. No clearance figure for this model is held here, so the answer above allows none until one is entered.

The chart plots each of the 62 heat pump dryers with a current price, at the price its page shows, checked 28 Oct 2026. The median is $1,441.
Figures trace to this machine's entry (ACD0887) in the Australian Government's energy-rating database, and to retailer checks on the dates shown. The label's annual energy figure assumes one load a week, so a household drying four loads a week uses four times it; the heat pump payback page works through that arithmetic.
