INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Exhaust Materials
NOTE:To reduce the risk of fire, DO NOT use flexible
plastic pipe to exhaust the dryer. The following exhaust
materials are recommended and can be obtained from
any local hardware store:
4.1 4"(Diameter) Rigid metal duct.
4.2 4"(Diameter) Non-combustable semi-rigid
flexible metal duct.
4.3 IMPORTANT: For maximum efficiency, keep the
exhaust duct as short as possible.Make sure old exhaust
ducts are 'cleaned' before installing your new dryer.
4.4 To prevent "backdraft" when the dryer is not in use,the
outer end of the exhaust pipe must have a weather hood
with hinged dampers installed.(Available at local hardware
stores).
Note: Weather hood should be installed at least 12"
(30.5cm) above the ground. Higher clearances may be
necessary in areas where heavy snowfall can occur.
