Venting requirements
WARNING
Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death or fire.
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire,
this dryer must be exhausted outdoors.
10.2 cm (4 in.) heavy metal exhaust vent
and clamps must be used.
• The dryer exhaust air must not be
discharged into a flue which is used for
exhausting fumes from appliances
burning gas or other fuels. It must also
not be discharged into a gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling or other concealed
space of a building.
• Do not use an exhaust hood with a
magnetic latch.
• Do not install flexible metal vent in
enclosed walls, ceilings or floors.
• Use clamps to seal all joints. Exhaust
vent must not be connected or secured
with screws or other fastening devices
which extend into the interior of the duct.
Do not use duct tape.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes
and ordinances.
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.
Use a heavy metal vent. Do not use plastic
or metal foil vent.
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 can
result in reduced airflow and poor
performance.
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to
prevent rodents and insects from entering
the home.
Exhaust hood must be at least 30.5 cm (12
in.) from the ground or any object that is in
the path of the exhaust (such as flowers,
rocks or bushes, etc.).
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.
