GAS REQUIREMENTS
DRYER GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION
GAS SUPPLY
• A 1/8” National Pipe Taper thread plugged
tapping, accessible for test gauge connection,
must be installed immediately upstream of the
gas supply connection to the dryer. Contact your
local gas utility should you have questions on the
installation of the plugged tapping.
• Supply line is to be 1/2” rigid pipe and equipped
with an accessible shutoff within 6 feet of, and in
the same room with, the dryer.
• Use pipe thread compound appropriate for
natural or LP gas or use PTFE tape.
• Connect flexible metal connector to dryer and
gas supply.
ADJUSTING FOR ELEVATION
• Gas clothes dryers input ratings are based on
sea level operation and need not be adjusted
for operation at or below 2000 ft. elevation. For
operation at elevations above 2000 ft., input
ratings should be reduced at a rate of 4 percent
for each 1000 ft. above sea level.
• Installation must conform to local codes and
ordinances or, in their absence, the NATIONAL
FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI Z223.
You must use with this dryer a flexible metal connector
(listed connector ANSI Z21.24 / CSA 6.10). The length
of the connect shall not exceed 4 ft.
• Use a new CSA International approved flexible
gas supply line. Never reuse old flexible
connectors.
• Install an individual manual shut-off valve
within 6ft. of the dryer in accordance with the
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA
54.
• Securely tighten all gas connections.
• If connected to LP gas, have a qualified
person make sure gas pressure DOES NOT
exceed 13” water column.
• Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel, authorized gas
company personnel, and authorized service
personnel.
• Failure to do so can result in death,
explosion, or fire.
• The installation must conform with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with
the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54, or the Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code, CSA B149.1.
