INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

GAS SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Gas supply: This dryer is equipped for use with Natural gas. Dryer can be converted to L.P. gas. When rigid pipe is used it should be 1/2" IPS. 3/8"

approved aluminum or copper tubing may be used for lengths under 20 ft (6.1 m) if local codes and gas supplier permit. Lengths over 20 ft (6.1 m)

should use larger tubing and a different size adapter fitting. Pipe-joint compounds resistant to the action of L.P. gas must be used. An individual

manual shut-off valve must be installed within 6 ft (1.8 m) of the dryer in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS – Gas models only

Use a 3- or 4-wire, single-phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz, AC-only electrical supply (or 3- or 4-wire, 120/208 volt electrical supply, if specified on the serial/

rating plate) on a separate 30 amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Connect to an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in the neutral

or grounding circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS – Electric models only

Use a 3- or 4-wire, single-phase, 120/240 volt, 60 Hz, AC-only electrical supply (or 3- or 4-wire, 120/208 volt electrical supply, if specified on the serial/

rating plate) on a separate 30 amp circuit, fused on both sides of the line. Connect to an individual branch circuit. Do not have a fuse in the neutral

or grounding circuit. Do not use an extension cord.

WATER (STEAM MODELS ONLY) REQUIREMENTS

The dryer must be connected to the cold water faucet using new inlet hoses. Do not use old hoses. Do not overtighten. Damage to the coupling

can result. A cold water faucet should be located within 4 ft. (1.2 m) of the water fill valves, and should have water pressure of 20–100 psi

(137.9–689.6 kPa). You may use the water supply for your washer using the "Y" connector and short hose, which are provided.

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) 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 7

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.

Exhaust hoods:

■ Must be at least 12" (305 mm) from ground or any object that may

obstruct exhaust (such as flowers, rocks, bushes, or snow).

Recommended Styles:

Louvered hood

our products, we reserve the right to change materials and specifications without notice.

(102 mm)

ft. (2.4 m).

Box hood

Acceptable Style:

Angled hood

Determine vent path:

■ Select route that will provide straightest and most direct path

outdoors.

■ Plan installation to use fewest number of elbows and turns.

■ When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room

as possible.

■ Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.

■ Use as few 90° turns as possible.

Determine vent length and elbows needed for best drying

performance:

■ Use following "Vent System Chart" to determine type of vent material

and hood combinations acceptable to use.

NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified in "Vent

System Chart." Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:

Shorten life of dryer.

■

Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and

■

increased energy usage.

The "Vent System Chart" provides venting requirements that will help

achieve best drying performance.
