This washer/dryer can be converted to exhaust out the right or left side. To convert the washer/dryer, use Side Exhaust Kit Part Number 279823. If your washer/dryer was previously exhausted from the right or left side, it can be converted to rear exhaust by using standard offset connections. To cover the hole in the side, one of the following plugs can be added:

692790 (white)

3977784 (biscuit)

Follow the instructions in the kit to install. Kits are available from the dealer from whom you purchased your washer/dryer.

Special provisions for mobile home installations

The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.

Determine vent path

Select the route that will provide the straightest and most direct path outdoors.

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

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

Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking. Use the fewest 90° turns possible.

Determine vent length and elbows needed for best drying performance

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.
