Determine vent path:
Select the route that will provide straightest and most direct ■
path outdoors.
Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and ■
turns.
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room ■
as possible.
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking. ■
Avoid 90° turns when possible. ■
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best
drying performance:
Use following Vent system chart to determine type of vent ■
material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specied
in Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those
specied will:
Shorten life of dryer. ■
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times ■
and increased energy usage.
The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will
help achieve best drying performance.
