Venting the Dryer
WARNING
• Gas dryers MUST exhaust to the outdoors.
• DO NOT use sheet metal screws or other
fasteners which extend into the duct that could
catch lint and reduce the efficiency of the
exhaust system. Secure all joints with duct tape.
• To reduce the risk of fire, combustion, or
accumulation of combustible gases, DO NOT
exhaust dryer air into an enclosed and
unventilated area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling,
crawl space, chimney, gas vent, or concealed
space of a building.
• To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT exhaust the
dryer with plastic or thin foil ducting.
• Do not exceed the recommended duct length
limitations noted in the chart. Failure to follow
these instructions may result in extended drying
times, fire or death.
• Do not crush or collapse ductwork.
• Do not allow ductwork to rest on or contact
sharp objects.
• If connecting to existing ductwork, make sure it
is suitable and clean before installing the dryer.
• Venting must conform to local building codes.
• Use only 4 '' (10 cm) rigid, semi-rigid or flexible
metal ductwork inside the dryer cabinet and for
venting outside.
• The exhaust duct must be 4 '' (10 cm) in diameter
with no obstructions. The exhaust duct should
be kept as short as possible. Make sure to clean
any old ducts before installing your new dryer.
• Rigid, semi-rigid or flexible metal ducting is
recommended for use between the dryer and
the wall. All non-rigid metal transition duct must
be UL-listed. Use of other materials for transition
duct could affect drying time.
• Ductwork is not provided with the dryer. You
should obtain the necessary ductwork locally.
The vent hood should have hinged dampers to
prevent backdraft when the dryer is not in use.
• The total length of flexible metal duct must not
exceed 8 ft. (2.4 m).
