is used for exhausting fumes from appliance burning gas
or other fuels.

a sliding door or a door with a hinge on the opposite side
to that of the tumble dryer. In such a way that a full
opening of the tumble dryer door is restricted.
• Oil-affected items can ignite spontaneously, especially
when exposed to heat sources such as in a tumble dryer.
The items become warm, causing an oxidation reaction in
the oil. Oxidation creates heat. If the heat cannot escape,
the items can become hot enough to catch fire. Piling,
stacking or storing oil-affected items can prevent heat
