CONNECTING THE DRYER TO
HOUSE VENT
RIGID METAL TRANSITION DUCT
For best drying performance, a rigid metal
transition duct is recommended.
Rigid metal transition ducts reduce the risk
of crushing and kinking.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL (SEMI-RIGID)
TRANSITION DUCT
If rigid metal duct cannot be used, then
UL-listed flexible metal (semi-rigid) ducting
can be used (Kit WX08X10077).
Never install flexible metal duct in walls,
ceilings, floors or other enclosed spaces.
Total length of flexible metal duct should not
exceed 8 feet (2.4 m).
For many applications, installing elbows at
both the dryer and the wall is highly
recommended (see illustrations at right).
Elbows allow the dryer to sit close to the wall
without kinking and/or crushing the transition
duct, maximizing drying performance.
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL (FOIL-TYPE)
TRANSITION DUCT
In special installations, it may be necessary
to connect the dryer to the house vent using
a flexible metal (foil-type) duct. A UL-listed
flexible metal (foil-type) duct may be used
ONLY in installations where rigid metal or
flexible metal (semi-rigid) ducting cannot be
used AND where a 4
diameter can be
maintained throughout the entire length
of the transition duct.
In Canada and the United States, only the
flexible metal (foil-type) ducts that comply
with the “Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition
Duct, Subject 2158A” shall be used.
Never install flexible metal duct in walls,
ceilings, floors or other enclosed spaces.
Total length of flexible metal duct should not
exceed 8 feet (2.4 m).
Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
For best drying performance:
1. Slide one end of the duct over the
clothes dryer outlet pipe.
2. Secure the duct with a clamp.
3. With the dryer in its permanent position,
extend the duct to its full length. Allow
2
of duct to overlap the exhaust pipe.
Cut off and remove excess duct. Keep
the duct as straight as possible for
maximum airflow.
4. Secure the duct to the exhaust pipe with
the other clamp.
FOR TRANSITION VENTING
(DRYER TO WALL), DO:
•DOcut duct
as short as
possible and
install straight
into wall.
•DOuse elbows
when turns are
necessary.
DO NOT:
DO NOT bend
or collapse
ducting. Use
elbows if turns
are necessary.
DO NOT use
excessive
exhaust length.
Cut duct as
short as
possible.
DO NOT crush
duct against
the wall.
DO NOT set
dryer on duct.
