Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged
metal exhaust duct. If a fl exible duct is used, it must
comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition
Duct. Subject 2158A and maximum length of 2.4 m
(8 feet).
The more bends and the longer the duct, the
less air will circulate through the machine, which
will impede drying performance. We recommend
that you cut off any excess exhaust duct and run the
duct with as few bends as possible. And make any
necessary bends as gentle as possible.
Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A maximum
of 4 elbows may be used, but 4 feet of duct must
subtracted from the total vent length for every 90°
elbow used.
When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not route the air
exhaust duct upwards.

To connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation
outlet, follow the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust
fi tting or to a discharge through the wall.
2. Secure the duct joint to the outlet stub on the
machine.
3. Run the duct with as few bends as possible to the
point of discharge.
Ventilation grill (not
supplied with machine)
This appliance shall not be exhausted into a
chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl space
or a concealed space of a building. Only a rigid or
fl exible metal duct shall be used for exhausting. Only
a metal ventilation grill shall be used. If the duct is
taken to a wall outlet, a ventilation grill shall be fi tted
to prevent reverse fl ow of cold air. Fit the ventilation
grill to the outside of the wall.
Avoid:
• very long exhausting systems
• too many corners
• tight corners
These reduce effi ciency and increase time and
energy consumption.
Risk of Fire.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. The dryer
must be connected to an exhaust to the outdoors.
Regularly inspect the outdoor exhaust opening and
remove any accumulation of lint around the outdoor
exhaust opening and in the surrounding area.
