ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS FOR GAS DRYERS 120 Volt, 60Hertz, with 3-prong Grounding Plug Following are additional instructions regarding electrical connections and requirements for gas dryers. WARNING: The wiring and grounding must conform to all applicable local regulations. Please contact a qualified electrician to check your home’s wiring and fuses to ensure that your home has adequate electrical power to operate the dryer.
GAS REQUIREMENTS AND INSTRUCTIONS Following are important instructions and information concerning the requirements for the gas supply and service for gas dryers. IMPORTANT WARNING : THE GAS SUPPLY AND SERVICE FOR A GAS DRYER MUST COMPLY WITH ALL LOCAL CODES AND ORDINANCES. IN THE ABSENCE OF ANY LOCAL CODES OR ORDINANCES IN YOUR AREA, THE GAS SUPPLY AND SERVICE FOR YOUR GAS DRYER MUST COMPLY WITH THE LATEST EDITION OF THE NATIONAL FUEL GAS CODE, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54(USA) OR CANADIAN GAS INSTALLATION CODE CAS B149.1(CANADA)
EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS AND MAINTENANCE Dryer maintenance : 1.Check all pipe connections to inspect for gas leakage twice a year using non-corrosive leak detection fluid. DO NOT use an open flame to inspect for gas leakage. 2. Check Blower fan noise and vibration twice a year. Clean carefully the blower fan if there are sticked lints and other things.
EXHAUST DUCT • The exhaust duct must be smooth on the inside (low air resistance). The exhaust duct must have gentle bends. • It applies to the installation of several dryers on a shared exhaust duct that: The exhaust duct diameter must increase after each dryer.
Page 27
Over area A Exit Inspection * LG exhaust Duct Diameter: ø6"(153mm) • Use the exhaust duct over the inner diameter of exhaust pipe. • Do not use too small inner diameter of exhaust pipe or too long exhaust duct, Because it makes bad ventilation and low drying performance and it will be cause of trouble.
Exhaust and Dryer Maintenance Cleaning the Lint Screen 1. Clean the lint filter daily. Always make sure the WARNING lint filter is clean, because a clogged lint filter may increase drying times. • Disconnect the dryer’s electric power prior to any cleaning or maintenance. 2.
