not use plastic or metal foil vent.
[] Use clamps to seat all joints. The duct shall not be assembled
with screws or other fastening means that extend into the
duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.
[] The total length of flexible metal vent shall not exceed 7,%ft
(2.4 m).
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Rigid metal vent is recommended to prevent crushing and
kinking.
Flexible metal vent must be fully extended and supported when
the dryer is in its final position. Remove excess flexible metal vent
to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow
and poor performance.
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to prevent rodents and
insects from entering the home or business.
Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (305 mm) from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks, or bushes).
If using an existing vent system, clean lint from the entire length
of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with
lint. Replace any plastic or metal foil vent with rigid metal vent.

"Location Requirements" section.
Multiple Dryer Venting
[] A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The
main vent should be sized to remove 200 CFM of air per dryer
(min. static pressure of 0.06 inch water column TOTAL).
Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in
the main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room
where the dryers are located should have make-up air equal
to or greater than the CFM of all the dryers in the room.
[] Back-draft Damper Kits, Part No. 3391910, are available from
your dealer or distributor and should be installed in the vent of
each dryer to prevent exhausted air from returning into the
dryers and to keep the exhaust in balance within the main
vent. Unobstructed air openings are required.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the
direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side
should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering
with the other vents.
