Manufactured Or Mobile Home Installation - Frigidaire FFLE3911QW Technical & Service Manual

3. Running the exhaust system through an uninsulated
area may cause condensation and faster accumulation of
lint.
4. Compression or crimping of the exhaust system will
cause an increase in vent restriction.
5. Inspect and clean the exhaust system at a minimum
period of every 18 months with normal usage. The more
the dryer is used, the more often you should check the
exhaust system and vent hood for proper operation.
Exhaust Direction
The Laundry Center may be exhausted in four ways with
rear flush installation.
1. Straight back.
2. Down (8 inches [20.3 cm] length of 4 inches diameter
[102 mm] rigid duct and 1 elbow down).
3. Left (8 inches [20.3 cm] length of 4 inches diameter
[102 mm] rigid duct, 1 elbow down and 1 elbow left).
4. Right (8 inches [20.3 cm] length of 4 inches diameter
[102 mm] rigid duct, 1 elbow down and 1 elbow right).
To exhaust upwards, add an 11 inches (28 cm) length of
standard 4 inches (102 mm) diameter duct and a 90° elbow.
The unit will be positioned about 4.5 inches (11.5 cm) away
from the wall (flush to wall exhausting may be done by going
below the dryer rather than sideways).
An exhaust hood positioned to line up with the dryer
exhaust can be installed directly through the outside wall.
To exhaust to the side or down, add an 8 inches (20.3 cm)
length of standard 4 inches (102 mm) diameter duct and a
90° elbow.
