Connection to evacuation duct

The vent hose must use the shortest and straightest route possible from the tumble dryer to the evacuation duct. Trim or cut the vent hose if it is too long. If necessary, the vent hose can be extended to a maximum of 8 metres (inner diameter 102 mm). If a longer hose is needed, a larger inner diam- eter is required in order to maintain the tumble dryer’s fan capacity.

Any bends must be as gradual as possible. If 90º bends are necessary, there must be no more than four. Multiple bends reduce the tumble dryer’s fan capacity.

Installation in a hot environment

When installing in small rooms with high at- mospheric humidity where there is a risk of the temperature exceeding 25 °C, there is a risk of condensation water accumulating in a kink and obstructing the air flow, resulting in poor drying.

In such situations the hose must be fitted horizontally (b) or downwards (c) from the tumble dryer.

Caution!

Air from the tumble dryer must not be fed through ducts used for equipment that burns gas or other fuels.
