Venting, continued
Do not screen the exhaust ends of the vent system, or use
any screws, rivets or other fasteners that extend into the duct
to assemble the exhaust system. Lint can become caught in
the screen, on the screws or rivets, clogging the duct work
and creating a fi re hazard as well as increasing drying times.
Use an approved vent hood to terminate the duct outdoors,
and seal all joints with metal foil duct tape. All male duct pipe
fi ttings MUST be installed downstream with the fl ow of air.
Install male fi ttings in correct direction:

Exceeding the length of duct pipe or number of elbows
allowed in the "MAXIMUM LENGTH" chart can cause an ac-
cumulation of lint in the exhaust system. Plugging the system
could create a fi re hazard, as well as increase drying times.
incorrect
If installing fl exible metal (semi-rigid) venting, do not exceed 2 m
total duct length.
