40006013Eng.qxd 06/07/2009 13:00 Page 7 Ventilation Adequate ventilation must be provided in the room where the tumble dryer is located to prevent gases from appliances burning other fuels, including open fires, being drawn into the room during operation of the tumble dryer. ● Exhaust air must not be discharged into a flue which is used for exhausting fumes from appliances burning gas or other fuels. ● Check regularly that the air flowing through the dryer is not restricted.
40006013Eng.qxd 06/07/2009 13:00 Page 8 ● Do not restrict the flow of air through the hose e.g. by kinking it or fitting a smaller diameter connector to mount to a wall opening. ● Avoid the hose making U shaped curves as this will restrict the flow of air and increase the chance that water will collect in the hose. ● Check the hose regularly to remove any build-up of fluff or water that may have collected in it. The following diagrams give examples of good and bad installations.
