Installation spacing for recessed area or closet installation
All dimensions show recommended and minimum spacing allowed.

■
■
* 0" (0 mm) spacing is allowed.
Additional spacing should be considered for ease of installation and servicing.
Additional clearances might be required for wall, door, floor moldings, and dryer venting.
Additional spacing should be considered on all sides of the dryer to reduce noise transfer.
For closet installation, with a door, minimum ventilation openings in the top and bottom of the door are required.
Louvered doors with equivalent ventilation openings are acceptable.
Companion appliance spacing should also be considered.

NOTE: Bottom exhaust installations have a 90º turn inside the dryer. To determine maximum exhaust length, add one 90º turn to the chart.
Angled Hood
Determine vent path:
■
Select route that will provide straightest and most direct path outdoors.
■
Plan installation to use fewest number of elbows and turns.
■
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as possible.
■
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
■
Use as few 90° turns as possible.
Determine vent length and elbows needed for best drying performance:
■
Use following Vent System Chart to determine type of vent material and hood combinations acceptable to use.
NOTE: Do not use vent runs longer than those specified in Vent System Chart. Exhaust systems longer than those specified will:
■
Shorten life of dryer.
■
Reduce performance, resulting in longer drying times and increased energy usage.
