CONNECTING GAS DRYERS
• Gas supply requirements:
As shipped from the factory, this dryer
is configured for use with natural gas.
It can be converted for use with LP (Liquefied
Propane) gas. Gas pressure
must not exceed 13 in. water column.
• A qualified service or gas company technician
must connect the dryer to the gas service.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or
death.
• Isolate the dryer from the gas supply system
by closing its individual manual shutoff valve
during any pressure testing of the gas supply.
Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion, or
death.
• Supplylinerequirements:
Your laundry room must have a rigid gas
supplylinetoyourdryer.IntheUnitedStates,
anindividualmanualshutoffvalveMUSTbe
installed within at least 6 ft. (1.8 m) of the
dryer, in accordance with the National Fuel
GasCodeANSIZ223.1.A1/8-in.NPTpipe
plug must be installed. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
• If using a rigid pipe, the rigid pipe should be
1/2-in.IPS.Ifacceptableunderlocalcodes
and ordinances and when acceptable to your
gas supplier, 3/8-in. approved tubing may be
used where lengths are less than 20 ft. (6.1
m). Larger tubing should be used for lengths
in excess of 20 ft. (6.1 m). Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
• Connect the dryer to the type of gas shown
on the nameplate. Failure to do so can result in
fire, explosion, or death.
• To prevent contamination of the gas valve,
purge the gas supply of air and sediment
before connecting the gas supply to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection between the
gas supply and the dryer, purge remaining air
until the odor of gas is detected. Failure to do
so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
• DO NOT use an open flame to inspect for
gas leaks. Use a noncorrosive leak-detection
fluid. Failure to do so can result in fire, explosion,
or death.
• UseonlyanewAGA-orCSA-certifiedgas
supply line with flexible stainless steel
connectors. Failure to do so can result in fire,
explosion, or death.
• Securelytightenallgasconnections. Failure to
do so can result in fire, explosion, or death.
• Use Teflon ® tape or a pipe-joint compound
that is insoluble in Liquefied Petroleum (LP)
gas on all pipe threads. Failure to do so can
result in fire, explosion, or death.
• DO NOT attempt any disassembly of the
dryer; any disassembly requires the attention
and tools of an authorized and qualified
service person or company. Failure to do so
can result in fire, explosion, or death.
