This clothes dryer must be exhausted to the outdoors.

Use only 4” rigid metal ducting for the home exhaust
duct.
Use only 4” rigid metal or UL-listed flexible metal
(semi-rigid or foil-type) duct to connect the dryer to the
home exhaust duct. It must be installed in accordance
with the instructions found in “Connecting The Dryer
To House Vent” on page 5 of this manual.
•
Do not terminate exhaust in a chimney, a wall, a
ceiling, gas vent, crawl space, attic, under an enclosed
floor, or in any other concealed space of a building.
The accumulated lint could create a fire hazard.
•
Never terminate the exhaust into a common duct with
a kitchen exhaust system. A combination of grease and
lint creates a potential fire hazard.
•
Do not use duct longer than specified in the exhaust
length table. Longer ducts can accumulate lint,
creating a potential fire hazard.
•
Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This
will cause lint to accumulate, creating a potential fire
hazard.
•
Do not assemble ductwork with any fasteners that
extend into the duct. These fasteners can accumulate
lint, creating a potential fire hazard.

Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of the
exhaust system, especially at turns and joints. Exhaust
