Installation requirements
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 exible metal duct
must not exceed 7’ 10 1/2” (2.4 m).
Do not assemble the duct with screws
or other fastener means that extend
into the duct and catch lint.
For the United States only: Use only
those foil-type exible ducts, if any,
specically identied 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 re when
you install the dryer in an alcove or
closet.
Do not use a plastic or non-metal
exible duct.
If your existing ductwork is plastic, non-
metal, or combustible, replace it with
metal.
Use only a metal exhaust duct that is
non-ammable to ensure containment
of exhaust air, heat, and lint.
