SECTION III INSTALLATION PROCEDURES Installation should be performed by competent technicians in accordance with local and state codes. In the absence of these codes, the installation must conform to applicable American National Standards: ANSI Z223.1LATEST EDITION (National Fuel Gas Code) or ANSI/NFPA NO. 70-LATEST EDITION (National Electrical Code) or in Canada, the installation must conform to applicable Canadian Standards: CAN/CGA-B149.1-M91 (Natural Gas) or CAN/CGA-B149.2-M91 (Liquid Propane [L.P.
1. The dryer must be installed on a sound level floor capable of supporting its weight. Carpeting must be removed from the floor area that the dryer is to rest on. IMPORTANT: “The dryer must be installed on noncombustible floors only.” 2. The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area where it will be exposed to water or weather. 3. The dryer is for use in noncombustible locations. 4.
8. Dryer must be located in an area where correct exhaust venting can be achieved as noted in this manual (refer to Exhaust Requirements in Section E). IMPORTANT: Dryer should be located where a minimum amount of exhaust duct will be necessary. 9. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside. 10. The dryer must be installed with provisions for adequate combustion and make-up air supply. CAUTION: This dryer produces combustible lint and must be exhausted to the outdoors.
D. FRESH AIR SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS Air supply (make-up air) must be given careful consideration to ensure proper performance of each dryer. An unrestricted source of 800 cfm (22.65 cmm) is necessary for each dryer. An unrestricted air entrance from the outdoors (atmosphere) of a minimum of 1-1/2 square feet (0.14 square meters) is required for each dryer. This area must be enlarged if louvers or registers cover the opening. It is not necessary to have a separate make-up air opening for each dryer.
E. EXHAUST REQUIREMENTS Exhaust ductwork should be designed and installed by a qualified professional. Improperly sized ductwork will create excessive back pressure, which results in slow drying, increased use of energy, overheating of the dryer, and shut down of the burner by the airflow (sail) switches, burner hi-limits, or basket (tumbler) hi-heat thermostats. The dryer must be installed with a proper exhaust duct connection to the outside.
2. Single Dryer Venting Where possible, it is suggested to provide a separate exhaust duct for each dryer. The exhaust ductwork should be laid out in such a way that the ductwork travels as directly as possible to the outdoors with as few turns as possible. It is suggested that the use of 90º turns in ducting be avoided; use 30º or 45º angles instead. The shape of the exhaust ductwork is not critical as long as the minimum cross-sectional area is provided.

3. Multiple Dryer (Common) Venting If it is not feasible to provide separate exhaust ducts for each dryer, ducts from individual dryers may be channeled into a “common main duct.” The individual ducts should enter the bottom or side of the main duct at an angle not more than 45º in the direction of airflow. The main duct should be tapered, with the diameter increasing before each individual 10-inch (25.4 cm) duct (when dryer common exhaust is used) is added. If single 6-inch (15.
To protect the outside end of the horizontal ductwork from the weather, a 90º elbow bent downward should be installed where the exhaust exits the building. If the exhaust ductwork travels vertically up through the roof, it should be protected from the weather by using a 180º turn to point the opening downward. In either case, allow at least twice the diameter of the duct between the duct opening and nearest obstruction.
