Electrical: A four-wire or three-wire, single phase,
120/240-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, electrical supply (or
120/208-volt electrical supply, if specified on the
serial/rating plate) is required on a separate 30-amp
circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Use 10
gauge solid copper wire. A time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended.
Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the
outside. Four-inch diameter vent is required. Rigid
or flexible metal exhaust vent must be used. Do not
use plastic or metal foil vent. Exhaust outlet hood
must be at least 12 inches from the ground or any
object that may be in the path of the exhaust.

For closet installation with a
door, minimum ventilation
openings in the top and
bottom of the door are
required. Louvered doors
with equivalent air openings
are acceptable.
1. Select the route that will provide the straightest and most direct path outdoors.
Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns. When using
elbows or making turns, allow as much room as possible. Bend vent gradually to
avoid kinking. Avoid 90° turns.
2. Determine vent length.
The maximum length of the exhaust system depends upon:
• The type of vent (rigid metal or flexible metal).
• The number of elbows used.
• Type of hood.
See the exhaust vent length chart that matches your hood type for the maximum
vent lengths you can use.
3. Determine the number of elbows you will need.
IMPORTANT: Do not use vent runs longer than specified in the Vent Length Chart.
In the column listing the type of metal vent you are using (rigid metal or flexible
metal), find the maximum length of metal vent on the same line as the number of
elbows.

* Most installations require a
minimum 5-1/2” (14 cm)
clearance behind the dryer
for the exhaust vent with
elbow. See Installations

Requirements.”
