TITLE TO GO HEREINSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Venting
Correct installation is very important for all dryers to ensure maximum efficiency
andsafety.
IMPORTANT!
Never run the dryer unless the airflow system is free from obstruction.
There must be adequate ventilation to avoid the back flow of gases into the room from
appliances burning fuels, including open fires, when operating the dryer.
Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from
appliances burning gas or other fuels.
External venting
Your dryer has been designed to be vented outside to provide the following advantages:
Ensures optimum efficiency by preventing recirculation of moist air.
Eliminates condensation on walls and ceilings.
Reduces the chance of lint being sucked into the dryer.
Prevents lint and other fine particles being blown into the room.
All external venting systems should be:
Made from 100mm diameter flexible foil sleeved with a galvanised metal pipe where
thevent system goes through the wall, or 100mm diameter galvanised metal piping.
Exhausted outside and not into another confined space, eg the roof cavity of a house.
Fitted with a vent cap outside to stop rain water entering the dryer exhaust system.
Angled to avoid condensation running back into the dryer.
The vent system should be a maximum of 2 metres with no more than three 90⁰ bends.
Vent systems over 2 metres long require special installation. Contact a Fisher & Paykel
trained and supported service technician.
Internal venting
The dryer is set up in the factory for front venting. If front venting is used there must be
adequate ventilation to avoid the build up of moisture in the room, which can affect the
performance of the dryer. Venting must comply with local by-laws and regulations.
