CONNECTING THE DUCTTO A VENTILATION OUTLET
You will need a UL-CSA-approved, 4-inch ridged metal
exhaust duct.
NOTE: The more bends and the longer the duct, the
less air will circulate through the machine, which will
impede drying performance. We recommend that you
cut off any excess exhaust duct and run the duct with as
few bends as possible. And make any necessary bends
as gentle as possible.
NOTE: Maximum duct length of 15 feet, using two 90°
elbows is allowed. Subtract 4 feet of duct for
each additional elbow.
If more than 20 feet of duct is needed, the diameter must
be increased to 6” or 8” (152 mm or 203 mm).
NOTE: When installing in warm climates (77° F and
above) with high humidity levels, do not
route the air exhaust duct upwards.
To connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation outlet, follow
the steps below:
1. Connect the exhaust duct to a ventilation exhaust
fitting or to a discharge through the wall.
2. Secure the duct joint to the outlet stub on the
machine.
3. Run the duct with as few bends as possible to the
point of discharge.
WARNING!
This appliance should not be exhausted Into a
chimney, a wall, a celling, or a concealed space of
a building. Only a metal ventilation grill should be
used.
If the duct is taken to a wall outlet, a ventilation grill
should be fitted to prevent reverse flow of cold air. Fit the
FREESTANDING INSTALLATION
The dryer can be placed next to the washing machine.
It is essential that the machine is leveled and the locknuts
are tight to eliminate vibration noise.
There should be at least 1/2” (12 mm) of space between
the washer and dryer.
BUILT-IN INSTALLATION
ASKO dryers can be installed beneath a cabinet or
worktop with a minimum height of 34” (864 mm).
There must be a gap of about 1/2” (12 mm) all around
the machine, including between the rear edge of the
machine top panel and the back wall. The opening width
must be at least 24-1/2” (622 mm).
Space must also be available for the exhaust hose on the
left, right or rear of the machine. See the diagram for hole
sizes and positions. Note that the hole measurements
are to the center of the hole.
NOTES: The height adjustment for the dryer is
33-1/2” to 34-1/2” (850 mm to 876 mm). Do not
raise it higher than 34-1/2”.
Hole measurements are from center of hole.
