Dryer exhausts 220 cfm (measured at back of
dryer).
DO NOT install flexible duct in concealed
spaces, such as a wall or ceiling.
Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be
greater than .6 inches water column (1.5 cm),
measured with manometer placed on exhaust
duct 2 feet (61 cm) from dryer (check with dryer
running and no load). In multi-dryer installations,
all dryers connected to the main collector duct
should be operating when pressure is checked.
Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can
be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent
Kit (available as optional equipment at extra
cost).
Sufficient make-up air must be supplied to
replace the air exhausted by the dryer. The free
area of any opening for outside air must be at
least 40 in
2
(260 cm
2
).
Energy efficient buildings with low air
infiltration rates should be equipped with an air
exchanger that can accommodate on demand
make-up air needs in the laundry room. These
devices can be obtained through your building
contractor or building material suppliers.
Do not draw make-up air from a room containing
a gas fired water heater, a dry cleaner or a hair
salon.
Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void
warranty.
NOTE: Venting materials are not supplied with the
dryer (obtain locally).
IMPORTANT: DO NOT block the airflow at the
bottom of the dryer’s front panel with laundry,
rugs, etc. Blockage will decrease airflow through
the dryer, thus reducing the efficiency of the dryer.
