5. Installation
IMPORTANT:
1. The dryer needs sufficient clearance and an
adequate air supply for proper operation and
ventilation, and for easier installation and
servicing.
2. No other fuel burning appliance should be
installed in the same closet with the dryer.
To reduce the risk of fire and the accumulation of
combustions gases, the dryer MUST BE EXHAUSTED TO
THE OUTDOORS. Refer to the EXHAUSTING instructions
in this manual for additional warnings.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the bottom of the dryer’s
front panel with laundry, rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow
through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
Hint 1: Minimize exhaust duct length and changes in direction.
Hint 2: Use rigid exhaust duct or 521P3 semi-rigid flexible metal duct
kit. DO NOT use plastic or metal foil flexible duct. Plastic or
metal foil flexible duct reduces dryer airflow with its tendencies
to sag, kink, to be crushed and collect lint.
Hint 3: DO NOT use fasteners that extend into the duct and could
collect lint.
Hint 4: Maximize make-up air.
Hint 5: Maintain dryer and exhaust system as described in Section 9.
