If the length of the duct run or quantity of elbows used exceeds the above noted specifications, the cross section
area of the ductwork must be increased in proportion to the number of elbows or duct run added.
IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the cross section area of the duct can only be increased
to an extent. For extended ductwork runs, a professional heating, venting, and air
conditioning (HVAC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information.

When vertical single 10-inch (25.4 cm) venting is used (refer to Illus. B below), the ductwork from the dryer to
the outside outlet cannot exceed 40 feet (12.19 meters), refer to Illus. B below. This calculation compensates
for the use of a maximum of three (3) elbows including the two (2) elbows creating the 180° (turned downward)
outside outlet.
