Multiple Dryer Venting
A main vent can be used for venting a group of dryers. The
main vent should be sized to remove 200 CFM of air per dryer.
Large-capacity lint screens of proper design may be used in
main vent if checked and cleaned frequently. The room where
the dryers are located should have make-up air equal to or
greater than CFM of all the dryers in the room.
Back-draft Damper Kit, Part No. 3391910, is available from
your distributor and should be installed in the vent of each
dryer to keep exhausted air from returning into dryers and to
keep exhaust in balance within main vent. Unobstructed return
air openings are required.
