EXHAUSTING THE DRYER
TOOLS AND MATERIALS YOU WILL
NEED TO INSTALL EXHAUST DUCT
CONNECTING THE DRYER TO
HOUSE VENT
RIGID METAL TRANSITION DUCT
For best drying performance, a rigid metal transition
duct is recommended.
Rigid metal transition ducts reduce the risk of
crushing and kinking.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL CLOTHES
DRYER TRANSITION DUCT
If rigid metal cannot be used, then UL-listed flexible
metal clothes dryer transition duct (GE Appliances
part – PM08X10085) can be used.
Never install transition duct in walls, ceilings, floors
or other enclosed spaces.
Total length of transition duct should not exceed 8’
(2.4 m).
For many applications, installing elbows at both
the dryer and the wall is highly recommended (see
illustrations in next section). Elbows allow the dryer
to sit close to the wall without kinking and/or crushing
the transition duct, maximizing drying performance.
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL (FOIL-TYPE)
TRANSITION DUCT
In special installations, it may be necessary to
connect the dryer to the home exhaust vent
using flexible metal (foil-type) transition duct. UL–
LISTED universal flexible dryer transition duct
(GE Appliances parts – PM8X73 or WX8X73)
may be used ONLY in installations where rigid
metal or flexible metal transition ducting cannot be
used AND where a 4” diameter can be maintained
throughout the entire length of the transition duct.
In Canada and the United States, only transition
ducts that comply with “UL 2158A STANDARD
FOR CLOTHES DRYER TRANSITION DUCT
shall be used.
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
For best drying performance:
1. Slide one end of the duct over the clothes
dryer outlet pipe.

Installation Instructions
EXHAUSTING THE DRYER (cont.)
Using exhaust longer than specified length will:
Increase the drying times and the energy cost.
Reduce the dryer life.
Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
The correct exhaust installation is YOUR
RESPONSIBILITY.
Problems due to incorrect installation are not
covered by the warranty.
The MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE length of the exhaust
system depends upon the type of duct, number of turns,
the type of exhaust hood (wall cap) and all conditions
noted on the chart.
Internal elbows added for side or bottom vent
conversions must be included in the total elbow count.
Any elbow greater than 45° should be treated as a 90°
elbow; one elbow of 45° or less may be ignored.
Two 45° elbows will be treated like one 90° elbow. For
the side exhaust installations, add one 90° elbow to the
chart.
For every additional 90° elbow, reduce the allowable
vent system length by 10 feet.
When calculating the total vent system length, you
must add all the straight portions and elbows of the
system (including the transition duct).
EXHAUST LENGTH
DO NOT bend
or collapse
ducting. Use
elbows if turns
are necessary.
DO NOT use
excessive
exhaust
length. Cut
duct as short
as possible.
DO NOT
crush duct
against the
wall.
DO NOT

Installation Instructions
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Remove and discard existing plastic or metal foil
duct and replace with UL-listed duct.
Remove any lint from the wall exhaust opening.
Internal
Duct
Opening
Wall
Check that exhaust
hood damper
opens and closes
freely.
STANDARD REAR EXHAUST
This dryer comes ready for rear exhausting. If
space is limited, use the instructions to exhaust
directly from the sides or bottom of the cabinet.
Slide the end of the exhaust duct on the back of the
dryer and secure with duct tape or a hose clamp.
NOTE: We strongly recommend using rigid metal
exhaust duct. However, if flexible ducting is used it
must be UL-Listed metal, not plastic.
For straight line installation, connect the dryer
exhaust to the external exhaust hood using duct
tape or clamp.
RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION
TO MINIMIZE EXHAUST BLOCKAGE
Using duct elbows will prevent duct kinking and
collapsing.
EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECKLIST
HOOD OR WALL CAP
Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of
birds or other wildlife.
Termination should present minimal resistance to
the exhaust airflow and should require little or no
maintenance to prevent clogging.
Wall caps must be installed at least 12” above ground
level or any other obstruction with the opening pointed
down.
SEPARATION OF TURNS
For best performance, separate all turns by at least
4 ft. of straight duct, including distance between
last turn and dampened exhaust hood (wall cap).
SEALING OF JOINTS
All joints should be tight to avoid leaks. The male end
of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.
Duct joints should be made air- and moisture-tight
by wrapping the overlapped joints with duct tape or
aluminum tape.
Do not assemble ductwork with any fasteners that
extend into the duct. These fasteners can accumulate
lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
Horizontal runs should slope down towards the
outdoors 1/4” per foot.
Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of
the exhaust system, especially at turns and joints.
Exhaust system shall be inspected and cleaned at
least once a year.
INSULATION
Ductwork that runs through an unheated area or is
near air conditioning should be insulated to reduce
condensation and lint build-up.

Installation Instructions
FINAL SETUP
1. Carefully move the appliance to its final location.
Gently rock the appliance into position. It is
important not to damage the rubber leveling legs
when moving your appliance to its final location.
Damaged legs can increase appliance vibration.
It may be helpful to spray window cleaner on
the floor to help move your appliance to its final
position.
NOTE: Do not use washer cover to lift the unit.
2. To ensure the appliance is level and solid on all
four legs, tilt the appliance forward so the rear
legs are off the ground. Gently set the appliance
back down to allow the rear legs to self adjust.
3. With the appliance in its final position, place a
level on top of back part of the washer lid and
check it side to side, then check front to back.
Screw the front leveling legs up or down to
ensure the appliance is resting solid on all four
legs (no rocking or the appliance should exist),
turn the lock nuts on each leg up toward the base
of the unit and snug with a wrench.
NOTE: Keep the leg extension at minimum to prevent
excessive vibration. The farther out legs are extended,
the more the unit will vibrate.
