See the exhaust vent length chart that
matches your hood type for the maxi-
mum vent lengths you can use.
Exhaust systems longer than specified
will:
• Shorten the life of the dryer.
• Reduce performance, resulting in longer
drying times and increased energy
usage.
3. Determine the number of elbows you
will need.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer
than specified in Vent Length Chart.
