Special provisions for mobile home installations:

The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible 

portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate 

beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.

 

Determine vent path:

 

Select route that will provide straightest and most direct 

path outdoors.

 

Plan installation to use fewest number of elbows and turns.

 

When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room 

as possible.

 

Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.

 

Use as few 90° turns as possible.

The Vent System Chart provides venting requirements that 

will help achieve best drying performance.

Determine vent length and elbows needed for best 

drying performance:

 

Use following Vent System Chart to determine type of vent 

material and hood combinations acceptable to use.

NOTE:

 Do not use vent runs longer than those specifi ed 

in Vent System Chart. Exhaust systems longer than those 

specifi ed will:

 

Shorten life of dryer.

 

Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times 

and increased energy usage.

NOTE:

 Side and bottom exhaust installations have a 90º turn 

inside the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add 

one 90º turn to the chart.
