MOBILE HOME INSTALLATION

The installation of the dryer in mobile homes must conform to the Manufactured Home Construction and

Safety Standard Title 24 CFR, Part 32-80 {formerly the Federal standard for Mobile Home Construction and Safety, Title 24, HUD (Part 280), 1975} for the

United States,) or CSA Standards Z240 (for Canada).

When installing a dryer in a mobile home, provisions for anchoring the dryer to the floor must be made.

An anchor bracket kit is available with instructions

(see Accessories).

Locate in an area that has adequate make up air. A minimum of 25 square inches of unobstructed opening is required.

All mobile home installations must be exhausted to the outside with the exhaust duct termination securely fastened to the mobile home structure, using materials that will not support combustion.

The exhaust duct may not terminate beneath the mobile home.

See the section on exhausting for more information.

EXHAUSTING

Exhausting the dryer to the outside will prevent large amounts of lint and moisture from being blown into the room.

In the United States:

• all gas dryers must be exhausted to the outside.

• electric dryers located in a confined area such as a bedroom, bathroom, or closet must be exhausted to the outside.

• electric dryers not located in a confined area may be exhausted to the inside (see nonexhausted installations).

In Canada:

all gas and electric dryers must be exhaust- ed to the outside.

Outside the U.S. and Canada:

refer to local codes.

_,WARNING WARNINGplastic or nonmetal flexible duct presents a potential fire hazard•

NEVER USE PLASTIC OR NON-

METAL FLEXIBLE DUCT.

If your existing ductwork is plastic, nonmetal or combustible, replace it with metal.

Use only metal exhaust duct that will not support combustion to insure the containment of exhaust air, heat and lint.

Plastic flexible duct can kink, sag, be punctured, reduce air flow, extend drying times and affect dryer operation.

USE A MINIMUM OF 4-INCH DIAMETER RIGID

ALUMINUM OR RIGID GALVANIZED STEEL

DUCT.

Do not use smaller duct.

Ducts larger than

4 inches in diameter can result in increased lint accumulation.

Lint accumulation should be cleaned regularly.

If flexible metal duct must be used, use the type with a stiff sheet metal wall.

Do not use flexible duct with a thin foil wall.

Serious blockage can result if flexible metal duct is bent too sharp.

Never install any type of flexible duct in walls, ceilings or other concealed spaces.

CEILING, CRAWL SPACE OR A CONCEALED

SPACE OF A BUILDING, GAS VENT, ANY

OTHER COMMON DUCT OR CHIMNEY.

THIS

COULD CREATE A FIRE HAZARD FROM LINT

EXPELLED BY THE DRYER.

The exhaust duct should end with an exhaust hood with a swing out damper to prevent backdrafts and entry of wildlife.

Never use an exhaust hood with a magnetic damper.

The hood should have at least

12 inches of clearance between the bottom of the hood and the ground or other obstruction.

The hood opening should point down.

Never install a screen over the exhaust outlet.

When possible, do not exhaust the dryer directly into a window well in order to avoid lint build-up.

Do not exhaust under a house or porch.

If exhaust ductwork must run through an unheated area, the duct should be insulated and slope slightly down towards the exhaust hood to reduce condensation and lint build-up.

If an existing exhaust system is to be used with your new dryer, you must be sure:

• The exhaust system meets all local, state and national codes.

• That plastic flexible duct is not used.

• To completely inspect and clean all lint accumulation from the interior of the duct.

• The duct is not kinked or crushed.

• The exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

The static pressure in any exhaust system must not exceed 0.92 inches of water column, or be less than 0. This can be measured with the dryer running with a manometer at the point where the exhaust duct connects to the dryer.

A no heat setting should be used.

The dryer tumbler should be empty and the lint filter clean.

Inspect and clean the interior or the exhaust system at least once a year.

Disconnect electrical service prior to cleaning.

Check the gas line on gas dryers anytime the dryer is moved.

Frequently check to be sure the exhaust hood damper opens and closes freely.

NONEXHAUSTED INSTALLATIONS

If the electric dryer is not exhausted to the outside, the exhaust must not terminate directly behind the dryer.

Use a rectangular vent kit along with a dacron mesh lint bag (see Accessories).

Maintain a

6" clearance between the back of the control panel and the wall.

Although the lint screen and lint bag will retain most of the lint, a certain amount will be expelled into the laundry area.

WARNING: IF THE DRYER IS NOT EXHAUSTED

TO THE OUTSIDE, SOME FINE LINT WILL BE

EXPELLED INTO THE LAUNDRY AREA.

AN

ACCUMULATION OF DUST OR LINT IN ANY

AREA OF THE HOME CREATES A FIRE

HAZARD.

ANY LINT ACCUMULATIONS

BE CLEANED FREQUENTLY.
