SECTION III INSTALLATION PROCEDURES Installation should be performed by competent technicians in accordance with local and state codes. In the absence of these codes, the installation must conform to applicable American National Standards: ANSI Z223.1- LATEST EDITION (National Fuel Gas Code) or ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION (National Electrical Code) or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Pro

B. LOCATION REQUIREMENTS Before installing the dryer, be sure the location conforms to local codes and ordinances. In the absence of such codes or ordinances the location must conform with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI.Z223.1 LATEST EDITION, or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.] Gas) or LATEST EDITION (for General Installation and Gas Plumbing). 1.

C. DRYER ENCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS Bulkheads and partitions should be made of noncombustible material. NOTE: Allowances must be made for opening the control door. A 30-inches (76.2 cm) for optimum opening of load door. B The maximum thickness of the bulkhead is 4-inches (10.16 cm). For electric dryers the maximum thickness of the bulkhead is 1-inch (2.54 cm) within 3-inches (7.62 cm) from the top of the control door. C For gas and electric dryers a minimum overhead clearance of 12-inches (30.48 c

D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS The air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted source of air is necessary for each dryer. As a general rule, an unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet (0.14 square meters) is required for each dryer. If registers or louvers are installed over the openings, then the area must be increased. It is not necessary to have separate make-u

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. When possible, it is suggested to provide a separate (single) exhaust duc

NOTE: As per the National Fuel Gas Code, “Exhaust ducts for type 2 clothes dryers shall be constructed of sheet metal or other noncombustible material. Such ducts shall be equivalent in strength and corrosion resistance to ducts made of galvanized sheet steel not less than 0.0195-inches (26 gauge [0.50 mm]) thick.” SINGLE DRYER VENTING IMPORTANT: For exhaust duct runs over 20 feet (6.1 meters) a minimum size of 10-inches (25.4 cm) must be used.

VERTICAL VENTING When vertical single 10-inch (25.4 cm) venting is used (refer to Illus. B below), the ductwork from the dryer to the outside outlet cannot exceed 40 feet (12.19 meters). This calculation compensates for the use of a maximum of three (3) elbows including the two (2) elbows creating the 180° (turned downward) outside outlet. Illus. B If the length of the duct run or quantity of elbows used exceeds the above noted specifications, the cross-sectional area of the ductwork must be in

MULTIPLE DRYER (COMMON) VENTING If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for each dryer, ducts for individual dryers may be channeled into a common main duct. Each dryer is provided with a back draft damper. The individual ducts should enter the bottom or side of the main duct at an angle not more than 45° in the direction of the airflow. The main common duct may be any shape as long as the minimum cross-sectional area is provided. The main duct should be tapered with the diame
