Plan Vent System

Choose your exhaust installation type

Standard exhaust installation with rigid metal or flexible

metal vent

Alternate installations for close clearances

Venting systems come in many varieties. Select the type best for

your installation. Two close-clearance installations are shown.

Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.

NOTE: The following kits for close clearance alternate

installations are available for purchase. Please see the

“Assistance or Service” section to order.

Special provisions for mobile home installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible

portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate

beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.

Determine vent path

Select the route that will provide the 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.
Use the fewest 90° turns possible.

Determine vent length and elbows needed for best

drying performance

Use the 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 specified in

the Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those

specified will:

Shorten the life of the dryer.
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and

increased energy usage.

The Vent system chart provides venting requirements that will

help to achieve the best drying performance.
