IMPORTANT: Static pressure in the dryer’s exhaust duct should be no
greater than that shown in the chart on Page 32. This can be
measured with a manometer placed on the exhaust duct
approximately two feet (60.96 cm) from the dryer, see Page 32. All
dryers connected to the main collector duct should be in operation
when pressure is checked.
Installing an exhaust system does not eliminate the necessity of cleaning
the dryer lint filter after each load. The dryer interior and the complete
exhaust system should be cleaned periodically by a qualified service
person to remove any lint build-up.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the bottom of the dryer’s
front panel with laundry, rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease air flow
through the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
