Post by: Rainier10 on July 18, 2017, 12:16:03 PM: I set mine on some 5"x8"x20" concrete blocks. 8"x20" foot print and 5" tall. Right under each corner. In my area you are required to have them off of the ground so that the water can run under it and absorb into the ground evenly or something like that.
