compartment. The other two (2) are located on the base at the rear of the dryer.

(290.32 square centimeters) and 75 square inches (483.87 square centimeters) for each 8-inch (20.32 cm)
duct added.
3. Ducts should enter the main duct at the bottom or on the side at no more than a 45º angle.
4. Each exhaust duct should enter the main duct at least 34-inches (86.36 cm) apart.
5. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.
6. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply.
