pipe-joint compound resistant to action of propane gas.
Do not use TEFLON
®
tape.
2. Plan pipe fitting connection (Option 1)
A combination of pipe fittings must be used to connect dryer to
existing gas line. A recommended connection is shown. Your
connection may be different, according to supply line type, size,
and location.
3. Open shut-off valve
Open shut-off valve in supply line; valve is open when handle is
parallel to gas pipe. Then, test all connections by brushing on
an approved noncorrosive leak-detection solution. Bubbles will
show a leak. Correct any leak found.

Venting Requirements
VENTING
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space
of a building. Only rigid or flexible metal vent shall be used for
exhausting.
4" (102 mm) heavy metal exhaust vent
Exhaust hoods:
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents and
insects from entering the home.
Must be at least 12" (305 mm) from ground or any object
that may obstruct exhaust (such as owers, rocks, bushes,
or snow).
Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy metal exhaust vent and clamps may
be used.
Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
Rigid metal vent:
Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid
crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)
Must be fully extended and supported in nal dryer location.
Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result
in reduced airow and poor performance.
Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or oors.
The total length should not exceed 7¾ ft. (2.4 m).
The length of exible metal vent used must be included in
the overall vent system design as shown in the “Vent System
Charts.”
NOTE: If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire
length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged
with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal
or exible metal vents. Review “Vent System Charts” and, if
necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying
performance.
Elbows:
45° elbows provide better airow than 90° elbows.
Clamps:
Use clamps to seal all joints.
Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws
or other fastening devices that extend into interior of duct and
catch lint. Do not use duct tape.

H. Exhaust outlet
Optional exhaust installations:
This dryer can be converted to exhaust out the right side,
left side (all models except long vent), or through the bottom.
If you prefer, you may contact your local dealer to have the
dryer converted.
A. Standard rear offset exhaust installation
B. Left- or right-side exhaust installation
C. Bottom exhaust installation
Special provisions for mobile homes:
Exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible
portion of mobile home and must not terminate beneath the
mobile home. Terminate exhaust vent outside.
Determine vent path:
Select route that will provide straightest and most direct path
outdoors.
Plan installation to use 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 as few 90° turns as possible.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best
drying performance:
Use the following “Vent System Charts” to determine type of
vent material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specied in
“Vent System Charts.”
Exhaust systems longer than those specied will:
Shorten life of dryer.
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and
increased energy usage.
The “Vent System Charts” provide venting requirements that will
help achieve best drying performance.

Install Vent System
1. Install exhaust hood
2. Connect vent to exhaust hood
Install exhaust hood and use caulking compound to seal exterior
wall opening around exhaust hood.
Vent must fit over 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.
To determine if your model has a long vent system, refer to
the type code located on the serial number plate in the inner
door well. Example: An electric model would be DJAV – ELE –
XXXXXXX-XXX. A gas model would be DJAV – NAT – XXXXXXX-
XXX.
NOTE: For long vent systems, use of box/louvered hoods will
improve venting regardless of length.
