EXHAUST HOOD
• Use an approved exhaust hood with a swing-out damper that opens when the
dryer is in operation. When the dryer stops, the damper automatically closes to
prevent drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents.
• Louvered or box hood styles are recommended. Angled hood styles are
acceptable, but should be used only for short run installations. See the
“Recommended Maximum Exhaust Length” chart for more information.
• To avoid restricting air Ǎ ow, maintain a minimum of 12” (30.5 cm) clearance
between the vent hood and the ground or any other obstruction.
MOBILE HOME - ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS
• The installation must conform to current Manufactured Home Construction and
Safety Standard, Title 24 CFR-Part 3280 or the Canadian Manufactured Home
Standard CAN/CSA-Z240 MH.
• Special provisions must be made for outside makeup air. The opening should be
at least twice as large as the dryer exhaust outlet.
• If the dryer is exhausted through the Ǎ oor and into an enclosed area beneath the
mobile home, the exhaust system must terminate outside the enclosure with
the termination securely fastened to the mobile home structure.
GAS DRYER ONLY (MOBILE HOME ONLY)
• The dryer must be fastened to the Ǎ oor using a mobile home installation kit.
Follow the instructions supplied with the kit.
