•Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.

•When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as possible.

•Use the fewest 90 ° turns possible.

•Use the Vent system chart below to determine type of vent material and hood combinations acceptable to use.

NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified in the Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:

•Shorten the life of the dryer.

•Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and increased energy usage.

The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will help to achieve the best drying performance.
