Multi-dryer Installation
Exhaust Requirements
• The illustration below shows a typical example of a
multiple dryer installation. Note how each dryer has its
own exhaust system vented to the central exhaust duct.
IMPORTANT: Static pressure in the dryer’s exhaust
duct should be no greater than that shown in the chart
on Page 28. This can be measured with a manometer
placed on the exhaust duct approximately two feet
(60.96 cm) from the dryer. See Page 28. 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 before 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 airflow through the dryer,
thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
disconnect the electrical service to the dryer
before cleaning.
