Step 7: Connect Dryer Exhaust System

• DO NOT use plastic or thin foil ducting. Rigid

metal duct is recommended. Refer to Figure 21.

• Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as

possible.

• Be certain old ducts are cleaned before installing

your new dryer.

• Use 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid or flexible

metal duct.

• The male end of each section of duct must point

away from the dryer.

• Use as few elbows as possible.
• Use duct tape or pop-rivets on all duct joints. DO

NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on

exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct

and catch lint.

• Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must

be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint

build-up on pipe walls.

• In mobile home installations, dryer exhaust duct

must be secured to mobile home structure.

• Dryer exhaust duct MUST NOT terminate under

mobile home.

• Dryer exhausts 220 cfm (measured at back of

dryer).

• DO NOT install flexible duct in concealed

spaces, such as a wall or ceiling.

• Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be

greater than .6 inches water column (1.5 cm),

measured with manometer placed on exhaust

duct two feet (61 cm) from dryer (check with

dryer running and no load).

• Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can

be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent

Kit (available as optional equipment at extra

cost).

• Sufficient make-up air must be supplied to

replace the air exhausted by the dryer. The free

area of any opening for outside air must be at
least 40 in.

).

Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void

warranty.

NOTE: Venting materials are not supplied with the

dryer (obtain locally).

IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the

bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry,

rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through

the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
