  • Only a 4″ (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps may be used.
  • Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.

Rigid metal vent

  • Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid crushing and kinking.

Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if it is accessible to clean)

  • Must be fully extended and supported in final dryer location.
  • Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result in reduced airflow and poor performance.
  • Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors.
  • The total length should not exceed 73⁄4 ft (2.4 m).

NOTE: If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire length of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal or flexible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best drying performance.

Elbows:

  • 45° elbows provide better airflow than 90° elbows

Clamps:

  • Use clamps to seal all joints.
  • Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with screws or other fastening devices that extend into interior of duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-FIG-13

Vent Hoods: 4″ (102 mm) Diameter Exhaust HoodsWhirlpool-CEM2795JQ-
Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-FIG-14

Vent System Length
Exhaust hood must be at least 12″ (305 mm) from the ground or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as flowers, rocks, bushes, or snow).

Maximum Vent Length/Vent Connection
Maximum length of vent system depends upon the type of vent used, number of elbows, and type of exhaust hood.

Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-
FIG-15

For vent systems not covered by the vent specification chart, see your parts distributor. Provision must be made for enough air for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and ordinances.) See

  • “Recessed Area and Closet Installation Instructions” in the
  • “Location Requirements” sections.

A 4″ (102 mm) outlet hood is preferred. However, a 21⁄2″ (64 mm) outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 21⁄2″ (64 mm) outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types. For permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required.

Connect Vent

  1. If connecting to existing vent, make sure the vent is clean.
  2. Using a 4″ (102 mm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet in dryer.Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-FIG-16
  3. Tighten hose clamp with Phillips screwdriver.
  4. Make sure the vent is secured to exhaust hood with a 4″ (102 mm) clamp.
  5. Move dryer into final position. Do not crush or kink vent. Make sure dryer is level.
    NOTE: Testing for proper ventilation should be done with a Manometer. Minimum: 0.01″ (0.2 mm). Maximum: 0.6″ (16 mm).

If an Exhaust Hood Cannot be Used
The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow directed downward.

Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-
FIG-19

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least 2 ft (610 mm) above surface of roof. The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 1⁄2″ (13 mm) larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening. Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

Multiple Dryer Venting
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The main vent should be sized to remove 5,663 L/min (200 CFM) of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where the dryers are located should have make-up air
(air supply) equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.

Back-draft dampers are available from your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.

Each single-load dryer should have an unobstructed outdoor air opening of 24 in2 (154 cm2) (based on 1 in2 [6.5 cm2] per 1,000 B.T.U. [252 kcal]), common make-up air openings are also acceptable. Set up common openings so the make- up air is distributed equally to all of the dryers. Keep in mind that the coverage area must be increased by 33% to account for the use of registers or louvers over the openings. Also, make-up air openings should not be installed near the location where exhaust vents exit the building.
Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering with the other vents.

Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-
FIG-20

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should not be more than 30°. Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can damage dryers and items being dried. A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic cleaning of the vent system.
NOTE: For more dryer venting information, please refer to Whirlpool document W10100920.

WARNING

  • Excessive Weight Hazard
  • Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
  • Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
  1. Remove cardboard from beneath dryer. Place a level on top edges of dryer, checking each side and front. If not level, tip dryer and adjust legs up or down as shown in Step 3, repeating as necessary.Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-Electric-FIG-25
  2. Grip dryer from top and rock back and forth, making sure all four legs are firmly on floor. Repeat, rocking dryer from side to side. If dryer rocks, go to Step 3 and adjust leveling legs.
  3. If dryer is not level, use a 1″ or 25 mm open-end or adjustable wrench to turn the leveling leg counterclockwise to lower the dryer or clockwise to raise the dryer. Recheck levelness of dryer and that all four legs are firmly in contact with the floor. Repeat as needed.
    HELPFUL TIP: You may want to prop up front of dryer about 4″ (102 mm) with a wood block or similar object that will support weight of dryer.

Make Gas Connection

  • Explosion Hazard
  • Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
  • Install a shut-off valve.
  • Securely tighten all gas connections.
  • If connected to propane, have a qualified person make sure gas pressure does not exceed 13″ (33 cm) water column.
  • Examples of a qualified person includ e: licensed heating personnel, authorized gas company personnel, andauthorized service personnel.
    Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
  1. Remove red cap from dryer gas supply line.
  2. Connect gas supply to dryer. Use a pipe thread compound approved for the type of gas supplied. If flexible metal tubing is used, be certain there are no kinks.
    • If necessary for service, depending on model:
    • Open the toe panel by removing the 2¼” hex-head screws from the bottom of the panel. Then lift up on the panel while pulling the bottom of the panel away from the dryer. OR Open the toe panel. Use a putty knife to press on the toe panel lock located at the center top of the toe panel. Pull downward on the toe panel to open. Toe panel is hinged at the bottom.
  3. Open the shut-off valve in the gas supply line and make sure the dryer has its own gas supply opened.
  4. Test all connections by brushing on an approved noncorrosive leak-detection solution. Bubbles will show a leak. Correct any leaks found.

GAS SUPPLY CONNECTION

Type of Gas
This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is design-certified by CSA International for propane and butane gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made to convert dryer from gas specified on serial/rating plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving gas supplier. Conversion must be done by a qualified service technician. Gas conversion kit part numbers are listed near gas valve burner base.

Gas Supply Line Recommended Method
Provide a gas supply line of 1⁄2″ (13 mm) rigid (IPS) pipe
to dryer location. Pipe joint compounds that resist action of propane gas must be used. Do not use TEFLON®† tape. With propane gas, piping or tubing size can be 1⁄2″ (13 mm) minimum. Usually, propane gas suppliers determine size and materials used in the system.

Gas Supply Pressure Testing
A 1/8″ (3 mm) NPT minimum plugged tapping, accessible for gauge testing, must be installed immediately downstream of the installed shut-off valve to the dryer (as shown above). The dryer must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of 1/2″ psig (352 kg/m2). The expected pressures for the gas supply are listed in inches of water in the table below:

Natural Gas/Propane Gas

  • Minimum/5.2″ (132.1 mm)/8.0″ (203.2 mm)
  • Maximum/10.5″ (266.7 mm)/13.0″ (330.2 mm)

Alternate Method
The gas supply may also be connected using 3⁄8″ (10 mm) approved copper or aluminum tubing. If the total length of
the supply line is more than 20 ft (6.1 m), larger tubing will be required. If using natural gas, do not use copper tubing. Pipe joint compounds that resist action of type of gas supplied must be used.

Shut-off valve required
The supply line must be equipped with a manual shut-off valve installed within 6 ft (1.8 m) of dryer in accordance with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1. This valve should be located in same room as dryer. It should be in a location that allows ease of opening and closing. Do not block access to shut-off valve. In Canada, an individual manual shut-off valve must be installed in accordance with the B149 installation codes CAN/CGA B149.1 and CAN/CGA B149.2.

Flexible Metal Appliance Connector
It is recommended that a new flexible stainless steel gas line, design- certified by CSA International, be used for connecting the dryer to the gas supply line. (The gas pipe which extends through the lower rear of the dryer is provided with 3/8″ (10 mm) male pipe thread.)

NOTE: Do not kink or damage the flexible stainless steel gas line when moving the dryer.

Rigid Pipe Connection
The rigid pipe connection requires a combination of pipe fittings to obtain an in-line connection to the dryer.Whirlpool-CEM2795JQ-Commercial-Dryer-Gas-or-
