1. Single Dryer Venting

IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork can only be increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

2.Horizontal Venting

When horizontal dryer venting is used, the length of the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet, must not exceed 20 feet (6.10 meters). The minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least 14-inches (35.56 cm) for MDG-120, 18-inches (45.72 cm) for MDG-170, and 20-inches (50.8 cm) for MDS-170. Including tumbler/dryer elbow connections or elbows used for outside protection from the weather, no more than 1 elbow should be used in the exhaust duct run. If more than 1 elbow is used, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be increased.

3.Vertical Venting

When vertical dryer venting is used, the length of the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet, must not exceed 15 feet (38.1 meters). The minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least 14-inches (35.56 cm) for MDG-120, 18-inches (45.72 cm) for MDG-170, and 20-inches (50.8 cm) for MDS-170. Including tumbler/dryer elbow connections or elbows used for outside protection from the weather, no more than 3 elbows should be used in the exhaust duct run. If more than 3 elbows are used, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be increased.
