EXHAUST SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Useonly 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid or flexible
metal duct and approved vent hood which has a swing-out
damper(s) that open when the dryer isin operation. When the
dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent drafts
and the entrance of insectsand rodents. Toavoid restricting the
outlet, maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance
I
between the vent hood and the ground or anyother obstruction.
The following are specific requirements for
proper and safe operation of your dryer. Failure to follow
these instructions can create excessive drying times and
fire hazards.
[] Do not use plastic flexible duct to exhaust the dryer.
Excessivelint can build up inside exhaust system and create a
fire hazard and restrict air flow. Restricted air flow will increase
dryer times. Ifyour present system ismade up of plastic duct or
metal foil duct, _lace it with a rigid or flexible metal duct.
Ensure the present duct is free of any lint prior to installing
dryer duct.
[] Ifthe dryer isnot exhausted outdoors, some fine lint will be
expelled into the laundry area. An accumulation of lint in any
area of the home can create a health and fire hazard. The
dryer exhaust system MUST be exhausted to the outside
of the dwelling!
[] Do not allow combustible materials (for example: clothing,
draperies/curtains, paper) to come in contact with exhaust
_stem. The dryer MUST NOT be exhausted into a chimney, a
wall, a ceiling, or any concealed space of a building which can
accumulate lint, resulting in a fire hazard.
[] Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows
allowed in the "MAXIMUM LENGTH" charts can cause an
accumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging the system
could create a fire hazard, as well as increase drying times.
]Do not screenthe exhaust endsof the vent system, nor use
any screws or rivets to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can
become caught in the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging
the duct work and creating a fire hazard aswell as increasing
drying times. Use anapproved vent hood to terminate the duct
outdoors, and seal alUoints with duct tape. All male duct pipe
fittings MUST be installed downstream with the flow of air.
Explosion hazard. Do not install the dryer
where gasoline or other flammables are kept or stored. If the
dryer isinstalled in a garage, it must be aminimum of 18 inches
(45.7 cm) above the floor. Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, fire or burns.

Venting vertical through a roof may expose the exhaust
system to down drafts causing an increase in vent
restriction.
Running the exhaust system through an uninsulated area
may cause condensation and faster accumulation of lint.
Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will cause
an increase invent restriction.
The exhaust system should be inspected and cleaned a
minimum of every 18 months with normal usage. The more
the dryer is used, the more often you should check the
exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.
EXHAUST DIRECTION
All dryersshipped from the factory are setup for rear exhausting.
However, on electric dryers, exhausting can be to the right or
leRside of the cabinet or the bottom of the dryer.On gasdryers,
exhausting can beto the right side of the cabinet orthe bottom
of the dryer. Directional exhausting can be accomplished by
installing Exhaust Kit, P/N 131456800, available through your
parts distributor. Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.

INSTALL MALE FITTINGS IN CORRECT DIRECTION
Ininstallations where the exhaust system isnot described in the
charts, the following method must be used to determine if:the
exhaust system isacceptable:
1. Connect an inclined or digital manometer between the
dryer and the point the exhaust connects to the dryer.
2. Set the dryer timer and temperature to air fluff (cool
down) and start the dryer.
3. Read the measurement on the manometer.
4. The system back pressure MUST NOT be higher than
0.75 inches of water column. If the system back
pressure is less than 0.75 inches of water column, the
system is acceptable. If the manometer reading is
higher than 0.75 inches of water column, the system is
too restrictive and the installation is unacceptable.
Although vertical orientation of the exhaust system is
acceptable, certain extenuating circumstances could affect the
performance of the dryer:
Only the rigid metal duct work should be used.
