drafts and entry of wildlife. Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.
12. The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5cm) of clearance between the bottom of the
hood and the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.
13. Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.
14. To avoid lint buildup, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well. Do not exhaust
under a house or porch.
15. If the exhaust duct must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope
slightly down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint buildup.
16. Inspect and clean the interior of the exhaust system at least once a year. Unplug the power
cord before cleaning.
17. Check frequently to make sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
18. Check once per month, and clean at least once per year. Note: If your clothes are not getting
dry, then check the ducting for obstructions.
19. Do not exhaust the dryer into a wall, ceiling, crawl space, or concealed space of a building,
gas vent, or any other common duct or chimney. This could create a fire hazard from the lint
expelled by the dryer.
20. Do not use non-metallic flexible duct.
If this new dryer is installed into an existing exhaust system you must make sure:
- The exhaust system meets all local, state, and national codes.
- That a flexible plastic duct is not used.
- To inspect and clean all lint buildup from inside the existing duct.
- The duct is not dented or crushed.
- The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83 inches of water column, or be
less than 0. This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where the
exhaust duct connects to the dryer. A no-heat setting should be used. The dryer tumbler should be
empty and the lint filter should be clean.
Please read the following instructions carefully before installing the dryer. These instructions
should be kept for future reference.
