Gas Dryer

PRODUCT MODEL NUMBERS
RGX5634P
Gas supply: This dryer is equipped for use with
natural gas. It is design-certified by CSA
International for L.P. (propane or butane) gases
with appropriate conversion. 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. If local codes
permit, it is recommended that new flexible metal
tubing, design-certified by AGA or CSA, be used
for connecting the appliance to the rigid gas
supply line. (The gas pipe which extends through
the lower rear of the appliance has 3/8-inch male
pipe thread.) 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 four-wire or three-wire, single
phase, 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, electrical supply
is required on a separate 15 or 20 amp circuit,
fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse
or circuit breaker is recommended.
Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the
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
hood must be at least 12 inches from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the
exhaust.

1. 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. When using elbows or
making turns, allow as much room as possible. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
Avoid 90° turns.
2. Determine vent length.
The maximum length of the exhaust system depends upon:
• The type of vent (rigid metal or flexible metal).
• The number of elbows used.
• Type of hood.
See the exhaust vent length chart that matches your hood type for the maximum vent
lengths you can use.
3. Determine the number of elbows you will need.
IMPORTANT: Do not use vent runs longer than specified in the Vent Length Chart.
In the column listing the type of metal vent you are using (rigid metal or flexible metal),
find the maximum length of metal vent on the same line as the number of elbows.
