INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Routing and Connecting Ductwork
Follow the guidelines below to maximize drying
performance and reduce lint buildup and condensation
in the ductwork.
NOTE:
Ductwork and fittings are NOT included and
must
be purchased separately.
• Use 4 in. (102mm) diameter rigid or semi rigid metal
ductwork.
• The exhaust duct run should be as short as possible.
• Use as few elbow joints as possible.
• The male end of each section of exhaust duct
must
point away from the dryer.
• Use duct tape on all duct joints.
• Insulate ductwork that runs through unheated areas
in order to reduce condensation and lint buildup
on duct surfaces.
• The Total length of flexible metal duct shall not exceed 8
ft.(2.4m)
• In Canada, only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any,
specifically identified for use with the appliance by the
manufacturer shall be used. In the United States, only
those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified
for use with the appliance by the manufacturer and that
comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct,
Subject 2158A, shall be used.
IMPORTANT:
Failure to exhaust the dryer per the
guidelines included within these instructions may result
in unsatisfactory dryer performance. All venting and
ductwork beyond the exterior of the dryer is the
responsibility of the consumer. Product failure as
a result of improper venting is not covered by the
manufacturer’s warranty.
Connecting the Dryer Vent
Verify all ducts and elbows are clean and free from any
blockages.
Measure duct length. DO NOT exceed the maximum
length listed in the chart on page 14.
Connect dryer exhaust to existing ductwork.
• Use duct tape or clamps only.
• DO NOT use screws to secure ductwork.
• Use rigid or semi rigid metal duct.
• DO NOT use plastic or thin metal foil tubing for
ductwork.
• The male end of each elbow must always point in the
direction of the airflow.
WARNING:
Failure to follow these
guidelines will result in poor performance, product
failure, and/or result in fire or death.
