Horizontal Venting:
When single dryer horizontal venting is used, the length of ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust
outlet must not exceed 45 feet (13.71 meters). The minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least
20-inches (50.8 cm) (for 190DR 12-inches [30.4 cm]). The shape of the ductwork is not critical as long as
the minimum cross-sectional area is provided. It is suggested that the use of 90° turns be avoided; use 30°
and/or 45° angles instead. The radius of the elbows should preferably be 1-1/2 times the diameter of the
duct. No more than one (1) elbow must be used including the elbow used for outside protection from the
weather. If more than one (1) elbow is needed, the cross-sectional area must be increased. When adding
ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be connected. ALL ductwork should
be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint.
ALL ductwork joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from escaping into the building. Inspection
doors should be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork for periodic inspection and cleaning of
lint from the ductwork.
Vertical Venting:
When single dryer vertical venting is used, the length of ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust
outlet must not exceed 30 feet (9.14 meters). The minimum diameter of this ductwork must be at least
24-inches (60.96 cm) (for 190DR 12-inches [30.4 cm]) even though the dryer exhaust duct is only 20-
inches (50.8 cm) (for 190DR 12-inches [30.4 cm]). The shape of the ductwork is not critical as long as the
minimum cross-sectional area is provided. It is suggested that the use of 90° turns be avoided; use 30° and/
or 45° angles instead. The radius of the elbows should preferably be 1-1/2 times the diameter of the
duct. No more than three (3) elbows must be used, including the two (2) elbows (gooseneck) used for
outside protection from the weather. If more than three (3) elbows are needed, the cross-sectional area
must be increased. When adding ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be
connected. ALL ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other
obstructions, which will collect lint. ALL ductwork joints must be taped to prevent moisture and lint from
escaping into the building. Inspection doors should be installed at strategic points in the exhaust ductwork
for periodic inspection and cleaning of lint from the ductwork.
