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 fasteners that extend into the duct and
catch lint.
• For the United States only: Use only those foil-type exible ducts, if any, specically
identied 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.
