26-98379 — Vent Hood
Aluminum body and plastic
molded hood with a 4" opening.
Clamps are recommended for wall
and dryer connections. Steel clamps
designed to resist stretching, with
phillips/hex head screw are included
one each on elbows and periscopes.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Do not use non-metal flexible duct. Also, when installing the venting system, do not exceed
the specified length for the vent duct. Venting systems which are longer than specified will
accumulate lint, increase drying time and energy use and shorten the life of the dryer.

INSTALLATION OPTIONS
CLEARANCES
Most installations require a minimum 5
1
/
in. clearance behind
2
the dryer for the exhaust ducting. Allow minimum clearances of
at least 1 in. on the sides and back to minimize vibration and
noise. Allowing additional clearance for installation and servicing
is recommended. Be sure to allow for wall, door, or floor moldings
that may increase the required clearances. Allow at least 21" in
front of the dryer to open the door.
CLOSET INSTALLATION
The closet door must allow for sufficient airflow. Refer to the
diagram for minimum vent opening requirements. A louvered
door is also acceptable.
