DRYER SAFETY
In the State of Massachusetts, the following installation instructions apply:
■Installations and repairs must be performed by a qualified or licensed contractor, plumber, or gas fitter qualified or licensed by the State of Massachusetts.
■Acceptable Shut-off Devices: Gas Cocks and Ball Valves installed for use shall be listed.
■A flexible gas connector, when used, must not exceed 4 feet (121.9 cm).
Do not place items exposed to cooking oils in your dryer. Items contaminated with cooking oils may contribute to a chemical reaction that could cause a load to catch re.
To reduce the risk of re due to contaminated loads, thenal part of a tumble dryer cycle occurs without heat (cool down period). Avoid stopping a tumble dryer before the end of the drying cycle unless all items are quickly removed and spread out so that the heat is dissipated.
IMPORTANT: The gas installation must conform with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
The dryer must be electrically grounded in accordance with local codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, or the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.

INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Venting Requirements
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
■The 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 vent shall be used for exhausting.
■Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps may be used.
■Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
■Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use screws or other fastening devices that extend into the interior of the duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.
■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 7¾ ft. (2.4 m).
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 or flexible metal vent.
Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.
Good Better
Allow as much room as possible when using elbows or making turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
Vent outlet is located at the back of the dryer, at bottom center.
The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the dryer, or straight out the back of the dryer. See “Product Dimensions” in the “Location Requirements” section.
Make-up air:
Although each single-load dryer should have an unobstructed outdoor air opening of 24 in2 (154 cm2) (based on 1 square inch [6.5 cm2] per 1,000 Btu [252 kcal]), common make-up air
openings are also acceptable. Set up common openings so that the make-up air is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep in mind that the coverage area must be increased by 33% to account for use of registers or louvers over the openings. Also, make-up air openings should not be installed near the location of exhaust vents exiting the building.
Vent System Length
Maximum length of vent system depends upon the type of vent used, number of elbows, and type of exhaust hood. The maximum length for rigid vent is shown in the chart.
