SINGLE DRYER VENTING

IMPORTANT:

A minimum exhaust duct size of 6-inches (15.24 cm)

must be

used.

For a 6-inch (15.24 cm) horizontal run where a maximum of one (1) elbow is used (refer to the

illustration

below

), the ductwork from the dryer outlet

must not exceed

8 feet (2.44 meters).

If the length of the duct run or quantity of elbows used exceeds the above noted specifications, the
cross-sectional area of the ductwork

must be

increased in proportion to the number of elbows or duct run added.

IMPORTANT:

For extended ductwork runs, the cross section area of the ductwork can only be
increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits noted in
this manual, a professional heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) firm

should be

consulted for proper venting information.

When single 6-inch (15.24 cm) venting is used, for a horizontal run, the ductwork from the dryer to the outside
outlet

cannot

exceed 8 feet (2.44 meters) in total length. This calculation of 8 feet (2.44 meters) compensates

or allows for the use of a maximum of one (1) elbow (which is the outside outlet protection). Refer to the

illustration above
