  • Page 12: Location Of The Dryer

    B. LOCATION OF THE DRYER Before installing the dryer, be sure the location conforms to local codes and ordinances. In the absence of such codes or ordinances the location must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1 LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1- M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing).
  • Page 13: Fresh Air Supply Requirements

    D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted source of 1,040 cfm (29.44 cmm) is necessary for each dryer (total for both baskets [tumblers]). An unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet (0.14 square meters) is required for each dryer.
  • Page 14: Exhaust Requirements

    E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure which will result in slow drying, increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner hi-limits, or basket (tumbler) hi-limit thermostats.
  • Page 15 IMPORTANT: Minimum duct size for dryer is 10-inches (25.40 cm) round duct. Duct size must not be reduced anywhere downstream of dryer. IMPORTANT: It is recommended that exhaust or booster fans not be used in the exhaust ductwork system. NOTE: As per the National Fuel Gas Code, “Exhaust ducts for type 2 clothes dryers shall be constructed of sheet metal or other noncombustible material.
  • Page 16 It is suggested that the use of 90º turns in ducting be avoided; use 30º or 45º angles instead. The ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint. When adding ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be connected.
  • Page 17 It is suggested that the use of 90º turns in ducting be avoided; use 30º or 45º angles instead. The ductwork should be smooth inside with no projections from sheet metal screws or other obstructions, which will collect lint. When adding ducts, the duct to be added should overlap the duct to which it is to be connected.
  • Page 18 c. Outside Ductwork (Vent) Protection To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90º elbow turned downward should be installed where the exhaust duct exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through a roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180º turn (goose neck) to point the opening downward.
  • Page 19: Electrical Information

    When the exhaust ductwork passes through a wall, ceiling, or roof made of combustible materials, the opening must be 2-inches (5.08 cm) larger than the duct (all the way around). The duct must be centered within this opening. F. ELECTRICAL INFORMATION 1.
  • Page 20 If local codes permit, power to the dryer can be made by the use of a flexible U.L. listed power cord/pigtail (wire size must conform to rating of dryer), or the dryer can be hard wired directly to the service breaker panel.
