SINGLE DRYER VENTING

IMPORTANT: For exhaust duct runs over 20 feet (6.1 meters) a minimum size of 10-inches (25.4

cm) must be used.

HORIZONTAL VENTING

When a single 8-inch (20.32 cm) horizontal vent is used, the ductwork to the outlet cannot exceed 20 feet (6.1
meters), refer to Illus. A below. This calculation of 20 feet (6.1 meters) compensates or allows for the use of
a maximum of only one (1) elbow, (which is the outside outlet protection).

Illus. A

IMPORTANT: Exhaust back pressure measured by a manometer at the dryer exhaust duct area must

be no less than 0 and must not exceed 0.3 inches (0.74 mb) of water column
