Gas supply: Dryer is equipped for use with
NATURAL gas. Dryer can be converted to L.P. gas.
When rigid pipe is used it should be 1/2 inch IPS.
When acceptable to the gas supplier and local
codes, 3/8-inch approved tubing may be used for
lengths under 20 feet. For lengths over 20 feet,
larger tubing should be used. Pipe-joint
compounds resistant to the action of L.P. gas must
be used. This washer/dryer is equipped with its
own permanent, flexible gaas connector, design-
certified by CSA International, for connecting the
appliance to the gas supply line. An individual
manual shutoff valve must be installed within 6
feet of the dryer in accordance with the National
Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.
Electrical: A 120-volt, 60-Hz, AC-only, electrical
supply is required on a seperate 15- or 20-ampere
circuit, fused on both sides of the line. A time-
delay fuse or circuit breaker is recommended.

outside. Four-inch diameter vent is required. Rigid
or flexible metal exhaust vent must be used. Do
Not use plastic or metal foil vent. Exhaust outlet

Plan installation to use the fewest number of
elbows and turns.
Maximum length of the exhaust system depends
upon the type of vent used, number of elbows and
the type of exhaust hood. The maximum length for
both rigid and flexible vent is shown in the chart.
Additional clearance for wall, door and floor molding may be
required. Additional space may be needed for exhaust elbow.
