INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Venting Requirements

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for exhausting.

4" (102 mm)

4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent

■■ Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps may be used.

■■ Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.

Rigid metal vent:

■■ Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid crushing and kinking.

Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)

■■ Must be fully extended and supported in final dryer location.

■■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow and poor performance.

■■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors. ■■ The total length should not exceed 73⁄4 ft. (2.4 m).

NOTE: If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal or flexible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying performance.

NOTE: Although each single-load dryer should typically have an unobstructed outdoor air opening of 24"2 (154 cm2) (based on 1" [6.5 cm] per 1,000 Btu [252 kcal]), common make-up air openings are also acceptable.

Set up common openings so the make-up air is distributed equally to all dryers. Coverage area must be increased by 33% to account for the use of registers or louvers.

Make-up air openings should not be installed near the building exits for exhaust vents.

Elbows:

■■ 45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows.

Good

Better

Clamps:

■■ Use clamps to seal all joints.

■■ Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws or other fastening devices that extend into interior of duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.

Improper venting can cause moisture and lint to collect indoors, which may result in:

Moisture damage to woodwork, furniture, paint, wallpaper, carpets, etc.

Housecleaning problems and health problems.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Vent Hoods

4" (102 mm) Diameter Exhaust Hoods	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, bushes, or snow).

27 ft. (8.2 m)

21 ft. (6.4 m)

For vent systems not covered by the vent specification chart, see your parts distributor.

Provision must be made for enough air for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.) See “Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions” in the “Location Requirements” sections.

A 4" (102 mm) outlet hood is preferred. However, a 21⁄2" (64 mm) outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 21⁄2" (64 mm) outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types.

For permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required.

Connect Vent

1.If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.

2.Using a 4" (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet

in dryer.

4.Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with a 4" (102 mm) clamp.

5.Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent. Make sure dryer is level.

NOTE: Do not remove vent collar.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed downward.

24" min.

12" min. (610 mm)

(305 mm)*

*Minimum clearance above any accumulation of snow, ice, or debris such as leaves

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least 2 ft. (610 mm) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1/2" (13 mm) larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

Multiple Dryer Venting

A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM) of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where the dryers are located should have make-up air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.

Back-draft Damper Kit is available from your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return 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.

Airflowow

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should be no more than 30°.

Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can damage dryers and items being dried.

A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic cleaning of the vent system.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Gas Dryer Installation Requirements
