VENTING REQUIREMENTS

WARNING: To reduce the risk of re, this dryer MUST BE

EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.

IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.

■ Following these venting requirements will minimize ducting

air noise.

■ Exhaust air must not be discharged into a ue which is used

for exhausting fumes from other appliances burning gas or

other fuels, including open res (i.e. available airow into

the room should match airow out from the room).

■ Adequate ventilation must be provided to avoid the back

ow of gases into the room from appliances burning other

fuels, including open res.

■ Dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,

chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed

space of a building. Only rigid or exible metal vent shall

be used for exhausting.

■ Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.

■ Only a 102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps

may be used.

■ Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.

Rigid metal vent:

■ Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid

crushing and kinking.

Flexible metal vent: (Acceptable only if accessible to clean)

■ Must be fully extended and supported in nal dryer location.

■ Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may

result in reduced airow and poor performance.

■ Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or oors.

■ The total length should not exceed 2.4 m (7

3

⁄

4

ft.).

■ An exhaust hood should cap the vent to keep rodents

and insects from entering the building.

102 mm

(

4"

)

102 mm (4") heavy, metal exhaust vent

Elbows:

■ 45° elbows provide better airow than 90° elbows.

■ Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows

and turns.

■ Allow as much room as possible when using elbows

or making turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.

■ Vent outlet is located at the center of the bottom dryer back.

■ The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the

dryer, or straight out the back of the dryer.

Clamps:

■ Use clamps to seal all joints.

■ Exhaust vent must not be connected or secured with

screws or other fastening devices that extend into interior

of duct and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.

makeup air openings are also acceptable. Set up common

openings so the makeup air is distributed equally to all of

the dryers. Keep in mind that the coverage area must be

increased by 33% to account for the use of registers or

louvers over the openings. Also, makeup air openings

should not be installed near the location where exhaust

vents exit the building.

n If using an existing vent system, clean lint from entire length

of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged

with lint. Replace plastic or metal foil vents with rigid metal

or exible metal vents. Review “Vent System Chart” and,

if necessary, modify existing vent system to achieve best

The outside end of main vent should have a sweep elbow

directed downward.

If main vent travels vertically through the roof, rather than

through wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on end of vent at least

610 mm (2 ft.) above surface of roof.

The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter 13 mm (1⁄2")

larger than vent diameter. Vent should be centered in opening.

Do not install screening over end of vent for best performance.

A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The

main vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min. (200 CFM)

of air per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design

may be used in main vent if checked and cleaned frequently.

The room where the dryers are located should have make-up

air equal to or greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.

A Back-draft Damper Kit is available from your distributor and

should be installed in the vent of each dryer to keep exhausted

air from returning into dryers and to keep exhaust in balance

within main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.

Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in

the direction of the airow. Vents entering from the opposite

side should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from

interfering with the other vents.

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should

be no more than 30°.

Keep air openings free of dry-cleaning uid fumes. Fumes

create acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating

units, can damage dryers and items being dried.

A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for

periodic cleaning of the vent system.
