STANDARD REAR EXHAUST

We recommend that you install your dryer before

installing your washer. This will permit direct

access for easier exhaust connection.

Slide the end of the exhaust duct on the back of the

dryer and secure with duct tape or a hose clamp.

NOTE: We strongly recommend using rigid metal

exhaust duct. However, if flexible ducting is used it

must be UL-Listed metal, not plastic.

• For straight-line installation, connect the dryer

exhaust to the wall, using duct tape.

RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION TO

MINIMIZE EXHAUST BLOCKAGE

Using duct elbows will prevent duct kinking and

collapsing.
