Use only 4 inch (102 mm) diameter (minimum) 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

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.
If your present system is made up of plastic duct or 
metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or semi-rigid metal 
duct. Also, ensure the present duct is free of any lint prior 
to installing dryer duct.
