EXHAUST INFORMATION

WARNING - USE ONLY METAL 4-IN. DUCT. NOT USE DUCT LONGER THAN SPECIFIED THE EXHAUST LENGTH TABLE.

Using exhaust longer than specified length will:

• Increase the drying times and the energy cost.
• Reduce the dryer life.
• Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.

The correct exhaust installation is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY Problems due to incorrect installation are not covered by the warranty.

The MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE length of the exhaust system depends upon the type of duct, number of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wall cap), and all conditions noted below. Both rigid and flexible metal duct are shown in the table below.

EXHAUST LENGTH

	RECOMMENDED MAXIMUM LENGTH
	Exhaust Hood Types
	Recommended		Use only for short run installations
			2-1/2"
No. of 902 Elbows	Rigid Metal	Flexible Metal	Rigid Metal	Flexible Metal
0	150 Feet	55 Feet	125 Feet	45 Feet
1	135 Feet	52 Feet	115 Feet	42 Feet
2	125 Feet	49 Feet	105 Feet	39 Feet
3	115 Feet	46 Feet	95 Feet	36 Feet
4	105 Feet	43 Feet	85 Feet	33 Feet
5	95 Feet	40 Feet	75 Feet	30 Feet

If using flexible metal duct, please refer to page 5.

EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECK LIST

HOOD OR WALL CAP

• Terminate in a manner to prevent back drafts or entry of birds or other wildlife.
• Termination should present minimal resistance to the exhaust air flow and should require little or no maintenance to prevent clogging.
• Never install a screen in or over the exhaust duct. This could cause lint build up.
• Wall caps must be installed at least 12 in. above ground level or any other obstruction with the opening pointed down.
• If roof vents or louvered plenums are used, they must be equivalent to a 4-in. dampened wall cap in regard to resistance to air flow, prevention of back drafts, and maintenance required to prevent clogging.

SEPARATION OF TURNS

For best performance, separate all turns by at least 4 ft. of straight duct, including distance between last turn and exhaust hood.

TURNS OTHER THAN 90°

• One turn of 45^ or less may be ignored.
- Two 45^ turns should be treated as one 90^ turn.
• Each turn over 45^ should be treated as one 90^ turn.

SEALING OF JOINTS

• All joints should be tight to avoid leaks. The male end of each section of duct must point away from the dryer.
• Do not assemble the ductwork with fasteners that extend into the duct. They will serve as a collection point for lint.
• Duct joints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the overlapped joints with duct tape.
  • Horizontal runs should slope down toward the outdoors 1/2 inch per foot

INSULATION

Duct work that runs through an unheated area or is near air conditioning should be insulated to reduce condensation and lint build-up.

Installation Instructions

4 EXHAUST CONNECTION

WARNING - TO REDUCE THE RISK FIRE OR PERSONAL INJURY:

• Exhausting the dryer to the outdoors is strongly recommended to prevent large amounts of moisture from being blown into the room.
• Use only metal duct.
• Do not terminate exhaust in a chimney, any gas vent, under an enclosed floor (crawl space), or into an attic. The accumulated lint could create a fire hazard.
• Provide an access for inspection and cleaning of the exhaust system, especially at turns. Inspect and clean at least once a year.
• Never terminate the exhaust into a common duct with a kitchen exhaust. A combination of lint and grease could create a fire hazard.
• Do not obstruct incoming or exhausted air.

THIS DRYER COMES READY FOR REAR EXHAUSTING. IF SPACE IS LIMITED, USE THE INSTRUCTIONS IN SECTION 9 TO EXHAUST DIRECTLY FROM THE SIDES OR BOTTOM OF THE CABINET.

STANDARD REAR EXHAUST (Vented at floor level)

FOR STRAIGHT LINE INSTALLATION, CONNECT THE DRYER EXHAUST TO THE EXTERNAL EXHAUST HOOD USING DUCT TAPE OR CLAMP. (CORD NOT SUPPLIED WITH DRYER) CUT THE METAL EXHAUST DUCT (NOT SUPPLIED) TO THE PROPER LENGTH.

NOTE: WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND SOLID METAL EXHAUST DUCTING. HOWEVER, IF FLEXIBLE DUCTING IS USED IT MUST BE METAL NOT PLASTIC.

STANDARD REAR EXHAUST (Vented above floor level)

ELBOW HIGHLY RECOMMENDED RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION TO MINIMIZE EXHAUST BLOCKAGE. ELBOW HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

NOTE: ELBOWS WILL PREVENT DUCT KINKING AND COLLAPSING.

⑤ LEVELING AND STABILIZING YOUR DRYER

Installation Instructions, Indoor Exhausting

USING FLEXIBLE METAL DUCTS

If rigid all-metal duct cannot be used, then flexible all-metal ducting can be used, but it will reduce the maximum recommended duct length. In special installations when it is impossible to use only metal ducting, then UL-listed clothes dryer flexible metal transition duct may be used as transition venting between the dryer and wall connection only. The use of this ducting will affect dry time.

If flexible transition duct is necessary, the following directions must be followed.

• Use the Shortest Length Possible.
• Stretch the Duct to Its Maximum Length to avoid kinks.
• Do Not Crush or Collapse the Duct.
• Never Use Transition Duct Inside the Wall or Inside the Dryer.
• Avoid Resting the Duct on Sharp Objects.
• Venting Must Conform to Local Building Codes.

INDOOR EXHAUSTING

NOTE: MOBILE HOME, BEDROOM, BATHROOM, ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATIONS MUST BE EXHAUSTED TO THE OUTDOORS

OTHER INSTALLATIONS: If the installation makes it impossible to exhaust to the outdoors, a 4" exhaust deflector (WE25X278) must be installed. A clearance of 8" is required between the rear of the dryer and the wall, and the deflector should be pointing up.

NOTE: EXHAUSTING TO THE OUTDOORS IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED, EXHAUSTING INDOORS MAY CAUSE LINT ACCUMULATION, AND MOISTURE DAMAGE INCLUDING MOLD AND MILDEW.

⑥ ALCOVE OR CLOSET INSTALLATION

• If your dryer is approved for installation in an alcove or closet, it will be stated on a label on the dryer back.
• The dryer MUST be vented to the outdoors. See the EXHAUST INFORMATION sections 3 & 4.
• Minimum clearance between dryer cabinet and adjacent walls or other surfaces is:
  0 in. either side
  3 in. front and rear
• Minimum vertical space from floor to overhead cabinets, ceiling, etc. is 52 in.
• Closet doors must be louvered or otherwise ventilated and must contain a minimum of 60 sq. in. of open area equally distributed. If the closet contains both a washer and a dryer, doors must contain a minimum of 120 sq. in. of open area equally distributed.

7 BATHROOM OR BEDROOM INSTALLATION

• The dryer MUST be vented to the outdoors. See EXHAUST INFORMATION section 3 & 4.
• The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA NO. 70.

8 MOBILE OR MANUFACTURED HOME INSTALLATION

• Installation must conform to the MANUFACTURED HOME CONSTRUCTION & SAFETY STANDARD, TITLE 24, PART 32-80 or, when such standard is not applicable, with AMERICAN NATIONAL STANDARD FOR MOBILE HOME, ANSI/NFPA NO. 501B.
• The dryer MUST be vented to the outdoors with the termination securely fastened to the mobile home structure. (See EXHAUST INFORMATION section 3 & 4.)
• The vent MUST NOT be terminated beneath a mobile or manufactured home.
  • The vent duct material MUST BE METAL.
• Do not use sheet metal screws or other fastening devices which extend into the interior of the exhaust vent.
  • See section 2 for electrical connection information.

10 CHANGING DIRECTION OF DOOR OPENING

1. Open the door and remove the filler plugs opposite the hinges. With the door completely open, remove the bottom screws from each hinge on the dryer face. Insert these screws about half way into the TOP holes, for each hinge on the opposite side (where you removed the filler plugs). Apply firm pressure to get the screw started.
2. Loosen the top screws from each hinge on the dryer face half way. With one hand holding the top of the door and the other hand holding the bottom, remove the door from the dryer by lifting it UP and OUT.
3. Rotate the door 180°. Insert the door on the opposite side of the opening by moving the door IN and DOWN until the top hinge and the bottom hinge are resting on the top screws inserted in step 1.
4. Remove the remaining screws from the side of the opening from which the door was removed. With these screws secure each hinge at the bottom. Tighten the two top screws on each hinge. Reinsert the plastic plugs on the side from which the door was removed.
