Keep air openlngs free ot dry-
cleaning fluld fumes. Fumes create
acids which, when drawn through the
dryer heatlng unlts, can damage
dryers and loads being drled.
A
clean-out cover
should be located
on the main exhaust
duct for
periodlcally
cleaning
the exhaust
system.
An
exhaust hood
should cap the
outside end of the main duct to
prevent
exhausted
air from returning
to the dryers. If an exhaust
hood
cannot
be used, the outside end of
the main duct should have a sweep
elbow directed
downward.
If the
main duct travels vertically
through
the roof rather than through
the wall,
install 180" sweep
elbow
on the end
of duct at least 61 cm (2 feet) above
the highest part of the building.
The
opening
wall or roof shall have a
diameter
1.3 cm (l/2 inch) larger
than the exhaust
duct diameter.
The
exhaust
duct should be centered
in
the opening.

connection
Determine
which direction
you need
to attach
the exhaust
ducts to the
dryers, Both dryers can be exhausted
straight out the back or from the right
or left side. The lower dryer can also
be exhausted
through
the bottom.
Next, determine
the length of exhaust
duct you will need to connect
the
dryers to exhaust
hoods or the main
exhaust.
To connect exhaust duct
straight out the back -
Attach
exhaust
duct to each dryer
duct. Then connect
exhaust
ducts to
exhaust
hoods or main exhaust.
Use
duct tape to seal all joints.
To connect exhaust duct to
the right, left or bottom -
Use one of the following
kits to convert
the dryers. Follow kit instructions
to
avoid operating
problems.

The installation
spacing
is in
centimeters
and inches and is the
minimum
allowable.
Additional
spacing
should be considered
for
ease of installation,

and
compliance
with local codes and
ordinances.
If closet door is installed,
the mlnimum
unobstructed
air openings
in the top
and bottom
are required.
Door must
have two centered
openings
as
illustrated.
Both openings
must
provide
a minimum
of 465 sq cm
(72 square inches) of unobstructed
airflow as shown. Louvered
doors with
equivalent
air openlngs
are
acceptable.
FOR CLOSET INSTALLATIONS, TO
PREVENT LARGE AMOUNTS OF LINT
AND MOISTURE FROM
ACCUMULATING, TO MAINTAIN
DRYING EFFICIENCY, AND TO PREVENT
EXPOSURE TO POSSIBLE HEALTH
HAZARDS, DRYERS MUST BE EXHAUSTED
