STEP 8 Dryer Airflow.
Effective dryer operation requires appropriate dryer airflow. The adequacy of the airflow can be measured by evaluating the static pressure.
Static pressure in the exhaust duct can be measured with a manometer, placed on the exhaust duct approximately 2 ft. (60.9 cm) from the dryer. Static pressure in the exhaust duct should not exceed 5/8 inches (1.5 cm). The dryer should be checked while the dryer is running with no load.
