L.P. gas must be used. An individual manual shutoff
valve must be installed within 6 ft (1.8 m) of the dryer
in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI

Dryer dimensions
Select the route that will provide the straightest and most
direct path outdoors. Plan the installation to use the fewest
number of elbows and turns. Use the fewest 90° turns
possible.
Do not use vent runs longer than specied in vent length
chart.
Determine the number of elbows you will need.
For closet installation, with a door, the minimum ventilation openings in the top
and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors with equivalent air ventilation
openings are acceptable.

4" (102 mm) diameter vent is required. Rigid or exible
metal exhaust vent must be used. Do not use plastic
or metal foil vet. Exhaust hood must be at least
12" (305 mm) from the ground or any object that
may be in the path of the exhaust.

The vent system chart provides venting requirments
that will help to achieve the best drying performance.
