An exhaust
hood should cap the
exhaust vent to prevent
exhausted
air
from returning
into the dryer, The
outlet
of the hood must be at least
12 inches (30,5 cm) from the ground
or anything
else that may be in the
path of the exhaust,
Four-inch outlet hood is preferred.
However,
a 2-1/2-inch
(6,4 cm) outlet
exhaust
hood may be used, A
2-1/2-inch
(6,4 cm) outlet creates
greater
back pressure than other
hood Iypes, For permanent
installation,
a stationary
exhaust
system is required,
A main exhaust vent can be used for
exhausting
a group
of dryers, Main
exhaust vent should
be sized to
remove
200 CFM of air per dryer,
Large-capacily
lint screens of proper
design
may be used in the main
exhaust vent if checked
and cleaned
frequently,
The room where the dryers
are located
should have make-up
air
equal
to or greater
than the CFM of
all the dryers in the room,
Back-draft
Damper Kits, Part No,
3391910, are available
from your
Whirlpool
dealer
and should
be
installed
in each dryer's exhaust vent
to prevent
exhausted
air from
returning
into the dryers and to keep
the exhaust in balance
within the
main exhaust vent, Unobstructed
air
openings
are required,
Each exhaust 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,
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 loads being dried.
A clean-out
cover should be located
on the main exhaust vent for
periodically
cleaning
of the exhaust
system,

An exhaust hood should cap the
outside end of the main vent to
prevent
exhausted
air from returning
to the dryers, If an exhaust hood
cannot
be used, the outside end of
the main vent should
have a sweep
elbow
directed
downward,
If the
main vent travels vertically
through
the roof, rather than through
the wall,
install 180 ° sweep
elbow on the end
of vent at least 2 feet (61 cm) above
the highest part of the building,
The
opening
wall or roof shall have a
diameter
1/2 inch (1,3 cm) larger than
the exhaust vent diameter,
The
exhaust vent should be centered
in
the opening,
