IMPORTANT:
Make-up air must be provided from a source
free of dry cleaning solvent fumes. Make-up air that is
contaminated by dry cleaning solvent fumes will result in
irreparable damage to the motors and other dryer components.
NOTE:
Component failure due to dry cleaning solvent fumes
will void the warranty.
Fresh Air Supply Requirements ______
This appliance may only be installed in a room that meets the
appropriate ventilation requirements specified in the national
installation regulations.
When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes
this air through the tumbler, and exhausts it out of the building.
Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from
the outdoors. If the make-up air is inadequate, drying time and
drying efficiency will be adversely affected. Ignition problems
and sail switch “fluttering” problems may result, as well as
premature motor failure from overheating.
Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration
to ensure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted
source of air is necessary for each dryer. An airflow of 2,150
cfm (cubic feet per minute) (60.88 cmm [cubic meters per
minutes]) must be supplied to each dryer. As a general rule,
an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere)
of a minimum of 3 square feet (0.28 square meters) is required
for each dryer.
To compensate for the use of registers or louvers used over
the openings, the area must be increased by approximately
thirty-three percent. Make-up air openings should not be
located in an area directly near where exhaust vents exit the
building.
It is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening
for each dryer. Common make-up air openings are acceptable.
However, they must be set up in such a manner that the make-
up air is distributed equally to all the dryers. The dryer must
be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and
make-up air supply.
EXAMPLE: For a bank of six gas dryers, two openings
measuring 3 feet by 3 feet (0.91 meters by 0.91 meters) are
acceptable.
Exhaust Requirements _______________
General Exhaust Ductwork Information
Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a
qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create
excessive back pressure which results in slow drying,
increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and
shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner
hi-limits, or tumbler hi-heat thermostats. The dryer must be
installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.
The design of the flue system shall be such that any
condensate formed when operating the appliance from cold
shall either be retained and subsequently re-evaporated or
discharged.
CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and
must be exhausted to the outdoors.
Improperly sized or installed exhaust ductwork can
create a potential fire hazard.
NOTE:
This dryer is manufactured with a back draft damper.
Allowances must be made for remote or constricting
passageways or where dryers are located at excessive
altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.
