Installation Requirements
       WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Failure to follow these instructions can create 
excessive drying times and fire hazards.
       WARNING
FIRE HAZARD
Do not install a clothes dryer with flexible plastic
or metal foil venting materials. Flexible venting
materials are known to collapse, be easily 
crushed and trap lint. These conditions will 
obstruct clothes dryer airflow and increase the 
risk of fire.
Exhaust system requirements
If your present system is made up of plastic 
duct or metal foil duct, replace it with a rigid or 
semi-rigid metal duct.  In Canada and the United 
States if metal (foil type) duct is installed, it must
be of a specific type identified by the appliance 
manufacturer as suitable for use with clothes 
dryers and in the United States must also comply 
with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct, 
UL standard 2158A.  Also, ensure the present duct 
is free of any lint prior to installing dryer duct.
Use only 4 inch (10.2 cm) diameter (minimum) rigid
or flexible 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.

The following are specific requirements 
for proper and safe operation of your 
dryer.
Gas supply requirements
       WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Uncoated copper tubing will corrode when 
subjected to natural gas, causing gas leaks.
Use ONLY black iron, stainless steel, or plastic-
coated brass piping for gas supply.
1.  Installation MUST conform with local codes, or
in the absence of local codes, with the National 
Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition).
2.  The gas supply line should be 1/2 inch (1.27
cm) pipe.
3.  If codes allow, flexible metal tubing may be
used to connect your dryer to the gas supply 
line. The tubing MUST be constructed of
stainless steel or plastic-coated brass.
4.  The gas supply line MUST have an individual
shutoff valve. 
5.  A 1/8 inch (0.32 cm) N.P.T. plugged tapping,
accessible for test gauge connection, MUST
be installed immediately upstream of the gas 
supply connection to the dryer.
6.  The dryer MUST be disconnected from the
gas supply piping system during any pressure 
testing of the gas supply piping system at test 
pressures in excess of 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
7.  The dryer MUST be isolated from the gas supply
piping system during any pressure testing of the 
gas supply piping system at test pressures equal 
to or less than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa).
8.  Connections for the gas supply must comply 
with the Standard for Connectors for Gas 
Appliances, ANSI Z21.24.
