If you integrate the dryer's vent system with an existing exhaust system:
• Make sure the exhaust system meets all applicable local, state, and national regulations.
• Verify you are not using flexible plastic duct.
• Make sure to check for and remove all lint buildup from inside the existing ducts.
• Confirm the duct is not kinked or crushed.
• Make sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.
Manometer measurements
The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.83 inches of water column or be less than 0.
Note that these values are measured with the dryer running with a manometer presented to the exhaust
duct that connects to the dryer. The dryer drum must be empty and lint filter clean.
Exhausting requirements
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 amounts of lint and moisture
from being blown into the room.
In the United States and Canada
• All dryers must be exhausted to the outside.
• The required exhaust duct is 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter.
• 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' 10
• Do not assemble the duct with screws or other fasteners that extend into the duct and catch lint.
• For the United States only: 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.
Outside the United States and Canada
• Refer to the local codes.
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.
• Do not 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.
