fiz <br />Determine vent length and elbows needed for best <br />drying performance: <br />Use following Vent System Chart to determine type of vent <br />material and hood combinations acceptable to use. <br />NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified <br />in Vent System Chart. Exhaust systems longer than those <br />specified will: <br />Shorten life of dryer. <br />IN Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times <br />and increased energy usage. <br />The Vent System Chart provides venting requirements that <br />will help achieve best drying performance. <br />Vent System Chart, 27" (69 cm) Models'; <br />Number of 900 <br />turns or elbows <br />Type <br />of vent <br />Angled <br />hoods t <br />0 Rigid metal 35 ft.

Connect vent to exhaust hood <br />Vent must fit inside the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust <br />hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location using <br />straightest path possible. Avoid 90° turns. Use clamps to seal <br />all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other fastening <br />devices that extend into interior of vent to secure vent, <br />because they can catch lint. <br />27
