Venting vertical through a roof may expose the exhaust system to down drafts causing an increase in vent restriction.

Running the exhaust system through an uninsulated area may cause condensation and faster accumulation of lint.

Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will cause an increase in vent restriction.

The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. The more the dryer is used, the more often you should check the exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.

EXHAUST DIRECTION

All dryers shipped from the factory are set up for rear exhausting. However, on electric dryers, exhausting can be to the right or left side of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. On gas dryers, exhausting can be to the right side of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer. Directional exhausting can be accomplished by install- ing Exhaust Kit, P/N 131456800, available through your parts dis- tributor. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.
