VENTING REQUIREMENTS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, 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 exible metal vent shall be used for
exhausting.
4"
(102 mm)
4" (102 mm) heavy metal exhaust vent
■ 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 7
3
/
4
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
Chart and, if necessary, modify existing vent system to
achieve best drying performance.

Connect vent to exhaust hood
2.
Vent must t 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.

Install exhaust hood
1.
Install exhaust hood and use caulking compound to seal
exterior wall opening around exhaust hood.
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 specied
in Vent System Chart. 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.
NOTE: Bottom exhaust installations have a 90° turn inside the
dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one 90° turn
to the charts.
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.
