Each vent should enter the main vent at an angle pointing in the

direction of the airflow. Vents entering from the opposite side

should be staggered to reduce the exhausted air from interfering

with the other vents.

The maximum angle of each vent entering the main vent should

be no more than 30°.

Keep air openings free of dry cleaning fluid fumes. Fumes create

acids which, when drawn through the dryer heating units, can

damage dryers and items being dried.

A clean-out cover should be located on the main vent for periodic

cleaning of the vent system.

If an exhaust hood cannot be used:

The outside end of the main vent should have a sweep elbow

directed downward. If the main vent travels vertically through the

roof, rather than through the wall, install a 180° sweep elbow on

the end of the vent at least 610 mm (2 ft.) above the highest part

of the building. The opening in wall or roof shall have a diameter

13 mm (

⁄2

") larger than the vent diameter. The vent should be

centered in the opening.

Do not install screening or cap over the end of the vent.

Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.

Allow as much room as possible when using elbows or making

turns. Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.

Vent outlet is located at the center of the bottom dryer back.

The vent can be routed up, down, left, right, behind the dryer,

or straight out the back of the dryer.

Vent System Length

Maximum length of vent system depends upon the type of vent

used, number of elbows, and type of exhaust hood.

If dryer is installed in a confined area, such as a bedroom,

bathroom, or closet, provision must be made for enough air

for combustion and ventilation. (Check governing codes and

ordinances.) See “Recessed Area and Closet Installation

Instructions” in the “Location requirements” section.

A 102 mm (4") outlet hood is preferred. However, a 64 mm

⁄2"

) outlet exhaust hood may be used. A 64 mm (2

⁄2"

)

outlet creates greater back pressure than other hood types.

For permanent installation, a stationary vent system is required.

Multiple Dryer Venting

■ A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. Main

vent should be sized to remove 5663 l/min (200 CFM) of air

per dryer. Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be

used in the main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The

room where the dryers are located should have make-up air

equal to or greater than the airflow of all the dryers in the

room.

■ A back-draft damper kit is needed and is available from a

commercial laundry distributor; it should be installed in the

vent of each dryer to keep exhausted air from returning

into the dryers and to keep the exhaust in balance within

the main vent. Unobstructed return air openings are required.
