natural phenomenon. To prevent this water from
Iying in the hose or flowing back into the tumble
dryer, it is advisable to drill a small hole (dia. 3
mm) in the lowest point of the hose and to place
a small container below it.(See picture, point B).
Once connected to the
dryer, run the vent hose to
the desired outlet point,
ensuring that the run’s
overall length is less than
2 m, and that it contains
no more than two bends.
As to the outlet itself, if
you have decided on a fixed wall/window grille, a
good local builder’s merchant should be able to
supply you with the necessary fittings and
installation advice.
Important:
It is important not to
connect the vent hose to,
for example, a cooker
hood, or a chimney or flue
pipe designed to carry the
exhaust from a fuel
burning appliance.
Note that to avoid
condensation problems, it is essential that the
dryer be fitted with the flexible hose to carry its
“exhaust” at least beyond the kitchen units;
preferable outside the kitchen. In order to prevent
the appliance from overheating, it is important
that the steam exhaust is unobstructed.
Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to
an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an
exhaust capacity of at least 150 m3/h. If the dryer
is fitted next to kitchen units, make sure that the
vent hose is not squashed. If the hose is partially
squashed, drying efficiency will be reduced,
resulting in longer drying times and higher energy
consumption. If the hose is completely squashed,
the safety cut-outs with which the machine is
fitted may operate. When operating the tumble
dryer, the room temperature must not be lower
than +5°C and higher than +35°C, as it may
affect the performance of the appliance.
