Determine vent path
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.
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as possible.
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
Use the fewest 90° turns possible.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best drying performance
Use the 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 the Vent system chart.
Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:
Shorten the life of the dryer.
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and increased energy usage.
The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will help to achieve the best drying
performance.
Vent system chart
NOTE: Performance of rear exhaust to either side of the dryer is equivalent to adding one
elbow. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one elbow to the chart.
NOTE: Bottom exhaust performance is equivalent to adding two elbows. To determine
maximum exhaust length, add one elbow to the chart.
