3.2 Ducting requirements
If this new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must make sure:
- The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.
- That a flexible plastic duct is not used.
- To inspect and clean all lint buildup from inside the existing duct.
- The duct is not dented or crushed.
- The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
Manometer measurements
The static pressure in any exhaust system for best results shall be between 0.3 to 0.8
inches of water column, and cannot be less than 0 under any circumstances. with installed
duct of 4 inch diameter. Measurement must be done with the empty dryer working with a
manometer at the point where the exhaust duct connects to the dryer.
A no-heat setting should be used. Lint filter must be clean.
The correct exhaust installation is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
1. Use a 4-inch (10.2cm) diameter rigid aluminum or rigid galvanized steel duct.
2. Do not use a smaller duct.
3. Ducts larger than 4 inches (10.2cm) in diameter can result in increased accumulation of lint.
4. Lint should be removed regularly.
5. If a flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall. Do not use a
flexible duct with a thin foil wall. A serious blockage can result if the flexible metal duct is bent
too sharply.
6. Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings, or other concealed spaces.
7. Keep the exhaust duct as straight and short as possible.
8. Secure joints with aluminum tape. Do not use screws.
9. Plastic flexible ducts can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce airflow, extend drying times, and
affect the dryer operation.
10. Exhaust systems longer than recommended can extend drying times, affect machine
operations, and collect lint.
