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.

Install Vent System

1.
Install exhaust hood
Install exhaust hood and use caulking compound to seal
exterior wall opening around exhaust hood.
2.
Connect vent to exhaust hood
Vent must fit inside the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust
hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location
using straightest path possible. Avoid 90° turns. Use clamps
to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other
fastening devices that extend into interior of vent to secure
vent, because they can catch lint.

Make Gas Connection (Gas Dryer)

1.
Connect gas supply to dryer
Flared
male fitting
Remove red cap from gas pipe. Using a wrench to tighten,
connect gas supply to dryer. Use pipe-joint compound on
threads of all non-flared male fittings. If flexible metal tubing
is used, be sure there are no kinks.
NOTE: For propane gas connections, you must use pipe-joint
compound resistant to action of propane gas. Do not use
TEFLON tape.
