Dryer Exhaust Requirements . . .
Never install flexible duct in concealed spaces, such as a
wall or ceiling.
Exhaust System Materials
Exhaust system materials are not supplied with the dryer.
Exhaust duct must be 10.2 cm (four inches) in
diameter having no obstructions. Rigid metal duct is
recommended. Non-combustible semi-rigid flexible
metal duct is acceptable. Do not use plastic pipe or
flexible plastic pipe, because it contributes to poor drying
performance and collects lint, which can lead to a fire
hazard.
DO NOT use sheet metal screws on exhaust pipe joints or
other fastening means which extend into the duct that
could catch lint and reduce the efficiency of the exhaust
system. Secure all joints with duct tape.
NOTE: Kits described above are optional exhaust
system materials available at extra cost.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. To
reduce the risk of fire and combustion gas
accumulation the dryer MUST be exhausted
to the outdoors.
