Exhausting

The dryer must not be exhausted into a chimney, a wall, a ceiling, an attic, a crawl space, or a
concealed space of a building.
Exhausting the dryer to the outside will prevent large amount of lint and moisture from
being blown into the room.

• All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.
• The required exhaust duct is 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter.
• Use only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the
appliance by the manufacturer and that comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer
Transition Duct. Use Subject 2158A.
• See "Ducting requirements" in the "Installation" section for the maximum duct length and
number of bends that can be used.
• The total length of flexible metal duct must not exceed 7' 10½" (2.4 m).
• Do not assemble the duct with screws or other fasteners means that extend into the duct
and catch lint

WARNING
You must exhaust the dryer to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when you install the
dryer in an alcove or closet.
NEVER USE A PLASTIC OR NON-METAL FLEXIBLE DUCT.
If your existing ductwork is plastic, non-metal, or combustible, replace it with metal.
Use only a metal exhaust duct that is non-flammable to ensure containment of exhaust air,
heat, and lint.
