Exhaust System Requirements

Troubleshooting Tips Installation Instructions Operating Instructions Safety

Use only 4″ (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid metal duct for best performance, or flexible metal duct. Use approved vent hood which has swing-out dampers that open when the dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet, maintain a minimum of 12″ (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood and the ground or any other obstruction.

If all rigid metal duct cannot be used, then flexible all-metal venting can be used, but it will reduce the maximum recommended duct length. See Additional Installation Instructions following.

Don’t

WARNING: The following are specific requirements for proper and safe operation of your dryer. Failure to follow these instructions can create excessive drying times and fire hazards.

DO NOT use plastic flexible duct to exhaust the dryer. Excessive lint can build up inside exhaust system and create a fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted air flow will increase drying times. If your present system is made up of plastic duct or metal foil duct, replace it with rigid or flexible metal duct. Ensure the present duct is free of any lint prior to installing dryer duct.

The dryer exhaust system MUST BE EXHAUSTED TO THE OUTSIDE of the dwelling.

DO NOT allow combustible materials (for example: clothing, draperies/curtains, paper) to come in contact with exhaust system.

The dryer MUST NOT be exhausted into a gas vent, chimney, a wall, a ceiling, a common duct with a kitchen exhaust or any concealed space of a building which can accumulate lint, resulting in a fire hazard.

DO NOT exceed the length of duct pipe or number of elbows allowed in the Maximum Length charts. Lint can accumulate in the exhaust system, plugging the system and creating a fire hazard, as well as increasing drying times.

DO NOT screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, nor use any screws or rivets to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work and creating a fire hazard as well as increasing drying times. Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors, and seal all joints with duct tape. All male duct pipe fittings MUST be installed downstream with the flow of air.

EXPLOSION HAZARD. Do not install the dryer where gasoline or other flammables are kept or stored. If the dryer is installed in a garage, it must be a minimum of 18″ (45.7 cm) above the floor. Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, fire or burns.

Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of the exhaust system, especially at turns. Inspect and clean at least once per year.

Do not obstruct incoming or exhausted air.

Additional Installation Instructions

If all rigid metal duct cannot be used, then flexible all-metal venting can be used, but it will reduce the maximum recommended duct length. In special installations when it is impossible to make a connection with the above recommendations, then UL-listed clothes dryer transition duct may be used as transition venting between the dryer and wall connection only. The use of this ducting will affect drying time.

If flexible transition duct is necessary, only UL-listed duct

12identified for use with clothes dryers is approved.

The following directions must be followed.

•Use the shortest length possible.

•Stretch the duct to its maximum length.

•Do not crush or collapse.

•Never use transition duct inside the wall, flooring, ceiling or inside the dryer.

•Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.

•Venting must conform to local building codes.
