Long Vent Dryer Model LE/GV4634J
The Long Vent Dryer uses technology similar to the “Easy Clean 100 Lint Storage
Dryer.” A pulley and belt attached to the end of the drive motor (see the photo be-
low) steps up the speed of the blower to twice the standard speed. This increases
the air pressure in the exhaust to allow for substantially longer exhaust vent
lengths. The chart below shows the relation of the duct length to the number of
bends.
To maintain the current volume of air, (150 CFM), an air flow controller has been
added to the outlet of the lint chute (see the photo).
