Exhaust Duct

Inspect and clean the dryer exhaust ducting at least once a year to prevent clogging. A partially clogged exhaust can lengthen the drying time.

To clean the exhaust duct follow these steps:

1Turn off electrical supply by disconnecting the plug from the wall socket.

2Disconnect exhaust duct from the dryer.

3Vacuum the exhaust duct with the hose attachment.

4Reconnect the exhaust duct to the dryer.

Exhaust Hood

Make sure the inside flaps of the exhaust hood move freely (you may want to check with a mirror).

Make sure inside flaps are fully open when dryer is operating.

Make sure there is not wild life (birds, insects, etc.) nesting inside the exhaust duct or hood.

Check the inside of the exhaust hood with a mirror to rid of debris
