collectors will cause increased static pressure,
which will decrease dryer efficiency and will void
machine warranty.

Use duct tape or pop-rivets on all duct joints. DO
NOT use sheet metal screws or fasteners on
exhaust pipe joints which extend into the duct

Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must
be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint
build-up on pipe walls.
