paCkED with yOur DryEr.

DuCtinG matErials:

For best performance, this dryer should be vented with 4" diameter all rigid metal
exhaust duct. If rigid metal duct cannot be used, then UL-listed flexible metal
(semi-rigid) ducting can be used (Kit WX08X10077). In special installations, it
may be necessary to connect the dryer to the house vent using a f lexible metal
(foil-type) duct. A UL-listed flexible metal (foil-type) duct may be used ONLY in
installations where rigid metal or f lexible metal (semi-rigid) ducting cannot be
used AND where a 4" diameter can be maintained throughout the entire length of
the transition duct. Please see installation instruction packed with your dryer for
complete instructions when using flexible metal (foil type) ducting.

Exhaust lEnGth CalCulatiOn:

1. Determine the number of 90° turns needed for your installation. If you exhaust

to the side or bottom of dryer, add one turn.

2. The maximum length of 4' rigid (aluminum or galvanized) duct which can be

tolerated is shown in the table.

A turn of 45° or less may be ignored. Two 45° turns within the duct length should
be treated as a 90° elbow. A turn over 45° should be treated as a 90° elbow.

Dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

CautiOn: For personal safety do not terminate exhaust into a chimney, under
any enclosed house f loor (crawl space), or into an attic, since the accumulated
lint could create a fire hazard or moisture could cause damage. Never terminate
the exhaust into a common duct or plenum with a kitchen exhaust, since the
combination of lint and grease could create a fire hazard.

Exhaust ducts should be terminated in a dampered wall cap to prevent back
drafts, bird nesting, etc. The wall cap must also be located at least 12" above the
ground or any other obstruction with the opening pointed down.

For every extra 90° elbow, reduce the allowable vent system length by 10 ft.
Two 45° elbows will be treated like one 90° elbow.
For the side exhaust installations, add one 90° elbow to the chart.
The total vent system length includes all the straight portions and elbows of
the system (transition duct included).
