Outside Ductwork Protection - Electrolux TE1220E Installation Manual

Note!
1. The flue outlet of gas dryer shall be female and shall allow connection to a flue duct whose diameter com-
plies with the standards in force in the country where the appliance is to be installed.
2. When installing the exhaust duct of the gas dryer, keep a certain angle with the vertical wall so that any
condensate formed when operating the appliance from cold can be discharged.
3. The connection where the exhaust duct connects to the dryer should be sealed with steel clamp or duct
tape to prevent escaping the combustion products from the machine.
4. For gas dryer, vertical venting is prohibited.

6.6 Outside Ductwork Protection

To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90° elbow bent downward should be in-
stalled where the exhaust exits the building. If the ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be pro-
tected from the weather by using a 180° turn to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the
diameter of the duct between the duct opening and the nearest obstruction.
Do not use screens, louvers, or caps on the outside opening of the exhaust ductwork.
