It is important not to connect the
vent hose to, for example, a
cooker hood, or a chimney or flue
pipe designed to carry the
exhaust from a fuel burning
appliance.
Note that to avoid condensation problems, it is
essential that the dryer be fitted with the flexible
hose to carry its “exhaust” at least beyond the
kitchen units; preferable outside the kitchen.
To prevent wind or water flowing back into the
tumble dryer, you can also orientate the end of
the hose downwards.
In order to prevent the appliance from
overheating, it is important that the steam
exhaust is unobstructed.
Therefore, in case of a permanent hose fitted to
an exterior wall or ceiling, it must be ensured an
exhaust capacity of at least 150 m
3
/h.
Installation in a room connected to a central
ventilation system may affect the correct
machine functioning. If you notice that the drying
cycle is unusually longer, switch the fan off or
close the fan grille.
If the dryer is fitted next to kitchen units,
make sure that the vent hose is not
squashed. If the hose is partially squashed,
drying efficiency will be reduced, resulting in
longer drying times and higher energy
consumption.
If the hose is completely squashed, the
safety cut-outs with which the machine is
fitted may operate.
