Special provisions for mobile home
installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fas-
tened to a noncombustible portion of the
mobile home structure. Do not use screws
or other fastening devices that extend into
the interior of the vent to se{ ure vent.
Terminate the exhaust vent outside. The
exhaust vent must not terminate beneath
the mobile home and must not be
connected to any other duct, vent or chim-
Determine vent length
1. Select the route that will provide the
straightest and most direct path out-
doors. Plan the installation to use the
fewest number of elbows and turns.
When using elbows or making tums,
allow as much room as possible. Bend
vent gradually to avoid kinking. Avoid
90° turns.
2. Determine vent length.
The maximum length of the exhaust
system depends upon:
• The type of vent (rigid metal or
flexible metal).
• The number of elbows used.
• Type of hood.
