INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Use only 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid or fl exible metal duct and approved 

vent hood which has a swing-out damper(s) that open when the dryer is in 

operation. When the dryer stops, the dampers automatically close to prevent 

drafts and the entrance of insects and rodents. To avoid restricting the outlet, 

maintain a minimum of 12 inches (30.5 cm) clearance between the vent hood 

and the ground or any other obstruction.
