Installation

Multi-Dryer Installation Exhaust Requirements

Figure 30 shows a typical example of a multiple dryer installation. Note how each dryer has its own exhaust system vented to the central exhaust duct.

IMPORTANT: Static pressure in dryer’s exhaust duct should be no greater than that shown in Figure 29. This can be measured with a manometer placed on the exhaust duct approximately two feet (61 cm) from the dryer. All dryers connected to the main collector duct should be in operation when pressure is checked.

Installing an exhaust system does not eliminate the necessity of cleaning the dryer lint filter before each load. The dryer interior and the complete exhaust system should be cleaned periodically by a qualified service person to remove any lint build-up.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the electrical service to the dryer before cleaning.

IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry, rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
