To compensate for the use of registers or louvers used over the openings, this make-up air must be increased by
approximately thirty-three percent (33%). 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.
EXAMPLE: For a bank of eight (8) dryers, a total make-up air opening of 12 square feet (1.12 square meters)
is required. Two (2) unrestricted openings measuring 2 feet by 3 feet (6 square feet) (0.61 meters
by 0.92 meters [0.56 square meters]) are acceptable.
Allowances must be made for remote or constricting passageways or where dryers are located at excessive
altitudes or predominantly low pressure areas.
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.
Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to assure proper performance of each dryer. An
unrestricted source of 800 cfm (cubic feet per minute) (22.66 cmm [cubic meters per minute]) is necessary for
each dryer. As a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of
1-1/2 square feet (0.41 square meters) is required for each dryer. The area must be enlarged if louvers or
registers cover the openings. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and
make-up air supply.
