All mobile home installations
must be exhausted
to the outside

duct termination
securely
fastened
to the mobile
home structure,
using materials
that will not support
combustion.
The exhaust duct may not terminate
underneath
the mobile
home.
See Exhausting
section 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 dryers must be exhausted
to the outside.
The required exhaust
duct is 4inch(102mm)
in diameter.
Only those foil-type flexible
ducts, if any, specifically
identified
for use with the appliance
by
the manufacturer
and that comply with the Outline for Clothes
Dryer Transition
Duct, Subject
2158A, shall be used.
The duct shall not be assembled
with screws
or other fastening
means that extend into the
duct and catch lint.
In Canada:
Only those foil-type flexible
ducts, if any, specifically
identified
for use with the appliance
by
the manufacturer
shall be used.
All dryers must be exhausted
to the outside.
The exhaust duct should be 4inch (102mm)
in diameter.
Outside the U.S. and Canada:

Z_
The dryer must be exhausted
to the outside to reduce the risk of fire when
installed in an
w,_.,._ alcove or closet.
NEVER USE A PLASTIC
OR NON-METAL
FLEXIBLE DUCT.
If your existing
ductwork
is plastic,
non-metal,
or combustible,
replace
it with metal.
Use only a metal exhaust duct that is non-flammable
to ensure containment
of exhaust air,
heat, and lint.
