Single Dryer Venting; Horizontal Venting - JLA D3030 Installation Manual

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. Such ducts shall be equivalent in
strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less than
0.0195-inches (26 gauge [0.05 mm]) thick."
IMPORTANT: For exhaust duct runs over 85 feet (25.9 meters) a minimum size of 10-inches (25.4
cm) must be used.

HORIZONTAL VENTING

When a single 8-inch (20.32 cm) horizontal vent is used, the ductwork to the outlet cannot exceed 85 feet (25.9
meters), refer to Illus. A below. This calculation of 85 feet (25.9 meters) compensates or allows for the use of
a maximum of only one (1) elbow (which is the outside outlet protection).
