Special provisions for mobile home installations:
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible 
portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate 
beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.
 
Determine vent path:
 
Select route that will provide straightest and most direct  
path outdoors.
 
Plan installation to use fewest number of elbows and turns.
 
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room  
as possible.
 
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
 
Use as few 90° turns as possible.

The Vent System Chart provides venting requirements that 
will help achieve best drying performance.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best 
drying performance:
 
Use following Vent System Chart to determine type of vent 
material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified  
in Vent system chart. Exhaust systems longer than those 
specified will:
 
Shorten life of dryer.
 
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times  
and increased energy usage.
NOTE: Side and bottom exhaust installations have a 90º turn 
inside the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add 
one 90º turn to the chart.
