Read the Installation Instructions

and the Use and Care Guide.

Use 4 inch
diameter rigid
metal duct. Tape all
joints, including at the dryer.
Never use lint-trapping screws.

Keep duct runs as straight
as possible.

Clean all old ducts before installing
your new dryer. Be sure vent flap
opens and closes freely. Inspect
and clean the exhaust system
annually.

Restrict your dryer with a
poor exhaust system.

Let a poor exhaust system

cause slow drying.

Use plastic, thin foil, or
non-metal flexible duct.

Use longer than necessary
duct runs with many
elbows.

Allow crushed or clogged
ducts and vent.

Plastic or nonmetal flexible duct presents a potential fire hazard.
