DUCTING INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified installer or service agency. IMPORTANT: Have your dryer installed properly.

NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT instructions appearing in this manual are not meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood that common sense, caution, and carefulness are factors that CAN- NOT be built into the dryer. These factors MUST BE supplied by the person(s) installing, maintaining, or operating the dryer.

Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this machine according to the manufacturer’s instructions may result in conditions which can result in bodily injury and/or damage to property.

This dryer comes ready for rear venting.

WARNINGS

•Never use flexible duct inside the dryer.

•Do not terminate ducting in a chimney, range hood, gas vent, floor or attic space. The combination of lint and grease could create a fire hazard or cause damage.

•Provide an access for inspection and cleaning the exhaust system at least once a year.

EXHAUST LENGTH

The MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE length of the ducting depends upon the type

of duct, number of turns, the type of external venting point, and all conditions noted below. The maximum allowable length for both rigid and flexible metal ducting is shown in table 1 (next page). More than four 90°turns is not recommended.

VENTING CHECK LIST - HOOD or WALL CAP

•Terminate ducting in a manner to prevent back drafts, entry of birds or other wildlife.

•Termination should present minimal resistance to the exhaust air flow and should require little or no maintenance to prevent clogging.

•Wall caps must be installed at least 300

mm(12”) above ground level or any other obstruction with the opening pointed down.

•If roof vents or louvered plenums are used, they must be equivalent to a 100

mm(4”) wall cap with damper, in regard to resistance to air flow, prevention of back drafts and maintenance required to prevent clogging.

SEPARATION OF TURNS Separate all turns by at least 1m(3ft.) of straight duct, including distance between last turn and dampered wall cap. If two turns must be closer than 1 m (3 ft.) deduct 3 m (10 ft.) from the maximum lengths shown in the table for each occur- rence.

TURNS OTHER THAN 90°

•One turn of 45° or less may be ignored.

•Two 45° turns should be treated as one 90°.

•Each turn over 45° should be treated as one 90°.

SEALING OF JOINTS

•All joints should be tight to avoid leaks. The male end of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.

•Do not assemble the duct work with fasteners that extend into the duct. They will serve as a collection point for lint.

•Duct joints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the overlapped joints with duct tape.

INSULATION

•Duct work which runs through an unheated area or is near an air condi- tioning duct, should be insulated to reduce condensation and lint build up

and be sloped down toward outdoors.

NOTE: Never install screen inside exhaust duct.

WARNING: THE DRYER MUST VENT TO THE OUTDOORS.

TO PREVENT LARGE AMOUNTS OF LINT AND MOISTURE FROM ACCUMULATING AND TO MAINTAIN DRYING EFFICIENCY, THIS MACHINE MUST BE VENTED OUTDOORS.
