For lengths over 20 ft (6.1 m), larger tubing should be
used. Pipe-joint compounds resistant to the action of
L.P. gas must be used. An individual manual shutoff

Custom undercounter installation-dryer only Dryer dimensions
† Most installations require a minimum
5" (127 mm) clearance behind the dryer for
the exhaust vent with elbow. See Installation
Instructions, “Venting Requirements.”
Select the route that will provide the straightest and most direct path outdoors.
Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.
Use the fewest 90° turns possible.
Do not use vent runs longer than specified in vent length chart.
Determine the number of elbows you will need.
For closet installation, with a door, the minimum ventilation openings in the top
and bottom of the door are required. Louvered doors with equivalent air ventilation
openings are acceptable.
For cabinet installation, with a door, the minimum ventilation openings in the top
are required.
*Required spacing **For side or bottom venting, 2" (51 mm) spacing is allowed.
