Routing And Connecting Ductwork
NOTE
Follow the guidelines below to maximize drying
performance and reduce lint buildup and
condensation in the ductwork. Ductwork and
fittings are NOT included and must be purchased
separately.
• Use 4-inch (10.2 cm) diameter rigid, semi-rigid
or flexible metal ductwork.
• The exhaust duct run should be as short as
possible.
• Use as few elbow joints as possible.
• The male end of each section of exhaust duct
must point away from the dryer.
• Use duct tape on all duct joints.
• Insulate ductwork that runs through unheated
areas in order to reduce condensation and lint
buildup on duct surfaces.
• Incorrect or inadequate exhaust systems
are not covered by the dryer warranty. Dryer
failures or service required because of such
exhaust systems will not be covered by the
dryer warranty.
