D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS When the dryer is operating, it draws in room air, heats it, passes this air through the tumbler, and exhausts it out of the building. Therefore, the room air must be continually replenished from the outdoors. If the make-up air is inadequate, drying time and drying efficiency will be adversely affected. Ignition problems and sail switch “fluttering” problems may result, as well as premature motor failure from overheating. The dryer must be installed with pr

E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure, which results in slow drying, increased use of energy, and shutdown of the burner by the airflow (sail) switch, burner hi-limits, or lint chamber hi-limit protector thermostat. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside. The dryer shall not be exhausted into any gas vent, chimney, wall, ceili

1. Single Dryer Venting IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork can only be increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information. 2. Horizontal Venting When horizontal dryer venting is used, the length of the ductwork from the dryer to the outside exhaust outlet, must not exceed 20 feet (6.10

4. Multiple Dryer (Common) Venting IMPORTANT: For extended ductwork runs, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork can only be increased to an extent. When the ductwork approaches the maximum limits as noted in this manual, a professional heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HV AC) firm should be consulted for proper venting information. If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for each dryer, ducts from individual dryers may be channeled into a “common main duct.” The in
