Fire Hazard
Use a heavy metal vent.
Do not use a plastic vent.
Do not use a metal foil vent.
Failure to do so can result in death or fire.
l
Do Not use non-metal
flexible
vent,
metal
vent
that
is smaller
than
four
inches
(10.2
cm) in diameter
or exhaust
hoods
with
magnetic
latches.
l
Do Not exhaust
dryer
into
a chimney,
furnace
cold air vent,
attic
or crawl
space,
or any other
vent
used for venting.
l
Do Not install
flexible
vent
in enclosed
walls,
ceilings
or floors.
Important: Observe all governing codes and
ordinances.
It is recommended
that
you exhaust
your
dryer
to the outside
for best performance.
Moisture
and lint indoors
may cause:
l
Lint to gather
around
the dryer where
it can
be fuel for a fire.
l
Moisture
damage
to woodwork,
furniture,
paint,
wallpaper,
carpet,
etc.
l
Housecleaning
problems
and health
problems.
Four-inch
(10.2
cm) diameter
vent
is required
for best performance.
Rigid
or flexible
metal
exhaust
vent
must
be
used.
Do Not use plastic
or foil-covered
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
vent to avoid
sagging
and kinking
that may result in reduced
air flow.
An
exhaust
hood
should
cap
the exhaust
vent to prevent
exhausted
air from
returning
to the dryer.
Exhaust
outlet
hood
must be
at least 12 inches
(30.5
cm)
from
the ground
or any object
that may be in the path of the
12" min
exhaust
(such as flowers,
rocks
or bushes,
etc.).
%I
(30.5 cm)
If using
an existing
exhaust
system,
clean lint
from
entire
length
of system
and make sure
exhaust
hood
is not plugged
with
lint. Replace
any vinyl or metallized
plastic foil vent with
rigid
metal
or flexible
metal vent.
Use duct tape
to seal all joints.
Do Not use
screws to secure vent.
Service
check:
Back pressure
in any exhaust
system
used must not exceed
0.6 inches
in
water
column
measured
with
an incline
manometer
at the point
that exhaust
vent
connects
to dryer.
Mobile home installation
requirements
Four-wire
power
supply
cord or cable must be
used in a mobile
home
installation.
The dryer
must
be exhausted
outside.
I$-
outside
If dryer
is exhausted
through
the floor
and the
area under
the mobile
home
is enclosed,
the
exhaust
system
must
terminate
outside.
Extension
beyond
the enclosure
is
recommended
to prevent
lint and moisture
buildup
under
the mobile
home.
Plan the exhaust vent installation
Route the vent
The exhaust
outlet
is located
at the center
of
the rear of the dryer.
Determine vent length
The maximum
length
of the exhaust
system
depends
upon:
The exhaust
vent
can be
routed
up, down,
left,
right
or straight
out the
back of the dryer.
-
the type of vent (rigid
or flexible
metal)
-
the number
of elbows
used.
1. See the exhaust
vent length
chart that
matches
your type hood for the maximum
vent lengths
you can use.
Do not use vent
runs longer
than
specified
in exhaust
vent
length
charts.
Exhaust
systems
longer
than specified
will:
-
Accumulate
lint creating
a potential
fire
hazard.
-
Shorten
the life of the dryer.
-
Reduce performance,
resulting
in longer
drying
times and increased
energy
usage.

2. Determine
the number
of elbows
you will
need.
3. In the column
listing
the type of metal vent
you are using (rigid
or flexible),
find the
maximum
length
of metal vent on the same
line as the number
of elbows.

Select the route that will provide the
straightest
and most
direct
path
outdoors.
Plan the installation
to use the fewest
number
of
elbows
and turns.
Avoid
making
90" turns.
When
using
elbows
or making
turns,
allow
as
much
room
as possible.
Bend vent gradually
to
avoid
kinking.
