Exhaust Requirements
70420801 (EN)
26
NOTE: Exhaust ducts must be constructed of sheet
metal or other noncombustible material. Such
ducts must be equivalent in strength and corrosion
resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel
not less than 0.0195 inch (0.495 mm) thick.
Where the exhaust duct pierces a combustible wall or
ceiling, the opening must be sized per local codes. The
space around the duct shall be sealed with
noncombustible material.
NOTE: For best performance, provide an
individual exhaust duct for each tumble dryer. Do
not install a hot water heater in a room containing
tumble dryers. It is better to have the water heater
in a separate room with a separate air inlet.
Alternate Venting for 120 Pound tumble dryers
The 120 pound tumble dryer is equipped from the
factory toexhaust from the top; however, it may be
converted to exhaust out the rear by doing the
following (refer to Specifications and Dimensions
section):
1. Remove belt guard cover.
2. Remove 10 inch (254 mm) diameter el bow and
vertical duct.
3. Cut out shape from belt guard cover. Refer to
Figure 5.
4. Screw octagonal piece over 10 inch (254 mm)
diameter opening in top of belt guard.
5. Attach new exhaust duct to exhaust thimble on
rear panel, following all requirements in this
section.
6. Replace belt guard cover.
Figure 5
Improperly sized or assembled ductwork
causes excess back pressure which
results in slow drying, lint collecting in the
duct, lint blowing back into the room, and
increased fire hazard.
