DRYER EXHAUSTING INFORMATION – METAL DUCT ONLY
For complete information, see installation instructions packed with your
dryer.
DUCTING MATERIALS : For best performance, this dryer should be vented
with 4” diameter all rigid metal exhaust duct. If rigid metal duct cannot be
used, then UL-listed flexible metal (semi-rigid) ducting can be used (Kit
WX08X10077). In special installations, it may be necessary to connect the
dryer to the house vent using a flexible metal (foil-type) duct.
A UL-listed flexible metal (foil-type) duct may be used ONLY in installations
where rigid metal or flexible metal (semi-rigid) ducting cannot be used AND
where a 4” diameter can be maintained throughout the entire length of the
transition duct. Please see installation instruction packed with your dryer
for complete instructions when using flexible metal (foil type) ducting.
EXHAUST LENGTH CALCULATION:
- Determine the number of 90° turns needed for your installation. If you exhaust to the side or bottom of dryer, add one turn.
- The maximum length of 4″ rigid (aluminum or galvanized) duct which can be tolerated is shown in the table.
A turn of 45° or less may be ignored. Two 45° turns within the duct length should be treated as a 90° elbow.
A turn over 45° should be treated as a 90° elbow.
Dryers must be exhausted to the outside.
CAUTION: For personal safety do not terminate exhaust into a chimney,
under any enclosed house floor (crawl space), or into an attic, since the
accumulated lint could create a fire hazard or moisture could cause damage.
Never terminate the exhaust into a common duct or plenum with a kitchen
exhaust, since the combination of lint and grease could create a fire hazard.
Exhaust ducts should be terminated in a dampered wall cap to prevent back
drafts, bird nesting, etc. The wall cap must also be located at least 12″
above the ground or any other obstruction with the opening pointed down.
