[]
Use following Vent system chart to determine type of vent
material and hood combinations
acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified
in Vent system chart.
Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:
[] Shorten life of dryer.
[] Reduce performance,
resulting in longer drying times
and increased energy usage.
The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will
help achieve best drying performance.
NOTE: Side and bottom exhaust installation have a 90 ° turn
inside the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add on
90 ° turn to the chart.
NOTE: If flexible transition vent is used, the length must be
subtracted
from the total exhaust length in the vent system chart.

Vent must fit over the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust
hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location
using straightest
path possible. Avoid 90 ° turns. Use clamps
to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other
fastening devices that extend into interior of vent to secure
vent, because they can catch lint.
