VENTILATION, EXHAUST & CLEARANCES
VENTILATION OF AN ENCLOSED INSTALLATION
When the dryer is enclosed the
access
door
of
an
installation must be vented with a
minimum open area of 250cm² of
free air (a).
The Rinnai 'VENT' accessory is
suitable for this purpose
EXHAUST DUCT SYSTEM
Rinnai gas dryers must be installed with Rinnai gas dryer exhaust duct components. Two exhaust duct kits are
available, DFVKIT - vertical exhaust kit and DSHKIT horizontal exhaust duct kit. Each kit consists of rigid aluminium
pipes (can be cut to length as required) and vertical or horizontal terminals, stand-off brackets, rigid bends and an
internal wall plate. Additional pipes and bends are available separately if the contents of the basic kits do not meet
the installations requirements.
Exhaust products from gas dryers MUST NOT be discharged into existing 'natural draft' flue
systems associated with other gas appliances.
IMPORTANT
The exhaust duct(s) from multiple Rinnai gas dryers MUST NOT be combined into a common
discharge and MUST NOT be combined with flue or exhaust duct systems from other appliances.
The gas dryer is classified as a 'fan assisted flue appliance' in AS/NZS 5601 'Gas Installations'. It
MUST be located so that the exhaust duct terminal exits the building at a suitable point.
If the horizontal (wall) terminal is used, the location MUST be in accordance with Section 6 and
Figure 6.2 of AS/NZS 5601. If a vertical (roof) terminal is used, the location MUST be in accordance
with Section 6 of AS/NZS 5601.
