Installation spacing for recessed area or closet
installation
The dimensions shown below are the recommended spacing for this
dryer.
■ Additional spacing should be considered for ease of
installation and servicing.
■ Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, floor
moldings, and dryer venting.
■ Additional spacing of 1" (25 mm) on all sides of the dryer is
recommended to reduce noise transfer.
■ For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings
in the top and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors
with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable. Companion
appliance spacing should also be considered.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
To supply the required 3 or 4 wire, single phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz., AC only electrical supply (or 3 or 4 wire, 120/208 volt electrical
supply, if specified on the serial/rating plate) on a separate 30-amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended. Connect to an individual branch circuit.
VENTING REQUIREMENTS
Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the outside. 4" (102 mm)
diameter vent is required. Rigid or flexible 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 requirements that will
help achieve best drying performance.

Recommended Styles:

Acceptable Style:
Angled Hood
Determine vent path:
■ Select route that will provide straightest and most direct
path outdoors.
■ Plan installation to use fewest number of elbows and turns.
■ When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room
as possible.
■ Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
■ Use as few 90° turns as possible.

NOTE: Bottom exhaust installations have a 90º turn inside the
dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one 90º turn
to the chart.

Determine vent length and elbows needed for best
drying performance:
■ Use following Vent System Chart to determine type of vent
material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified in
Vent System Chart.
Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:
■ Shorten life of dryer.
■ Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and
increased energy usage.
