How high must appliances in public garages be installed above the floor?

Appliances in public garages are required to be installed at a minimum height of 8 feet above the floor to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes. This height helps to reduce the risk of damage from vehicles and other moving equipment typically found in garages. Installing appliances at this height also minimizes the possibility of accidental contact with water or other hazardous materials on the garage floor, which could create electrical hazards. By adhering to this standard, it protects both the appliances and the individuals using the space from potential dangers related to electrical shock and equipment malfunction.
