Connecting to a ventilation duct
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch
ridged metal exhaust duct. If a fl exible duct
is used, it must comply with the Outline for
Clothes Dryer Transition Duct. Subject 2158A
and maximum length of 2.4 m (8 feet).
NOTE!
• The more bends and the longer the
duct, the less air will circulate through
the machine, which will impede drying
performance. We recommend that you cut
off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct
with as few bends as possible. And make any
necessary bends as gentle as possible.
NOTE!
• Maximum duct length of 60 feet. A
maximum of 4 elbows may be used, but 4
feet of duct must subtracted from the total
vent length for every 90° elbow used.
NOTE!
• When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not
route the air exhaust duct upwards.
subtract 4 feet for
every 90°elbow
