[63 EXHAUST INFORMATION
_I_WARNING - IN CANADA AND IN THE UNITED STATES,
THE REQUIRED EXHAUST DUCT DIAMETER IS4 IN (102mm).
DO NOT USE DUCT LONGER THAN SPECIFIED IN THE
EXHAUST LENGTH TABLE.
Using exhaust longer than specified length will:
• Increase the drying times and the energy cost.
• Reduce the dryer life.
. Accumulate lint, creating a potential fire hazard.
The correct exhaust installation is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
Problems due to incorrect installation are not covered
by the warranty.
Remove and discard existing plastic or metal foil transition duct
and replace with UL listed transition duct.
The HAXIHUH ALLOWABLE duct length and number of bends
of the exhaust system depends upon the type of duct, number
of turns, the type of exhaust hood (wall cap), and all conditions
noted below. The maximum exhaust length for rigid metal duct
is shown in the table below.

EXHAUST SYSTEM CHECKLIST
HOOD OR WALLCAP
• Terminate in a manner to prevent backdrafts or entry of birds or
other wildlife.
• Termination should present minimal resistanceto the exhaust airflow
and should requirelittle or no maintenance to prevent clogging.
• Never installa screenin or over the exhaust duct. Thiscould cause lint
build up.
• Wall capsmust be installed at least12 in.above ground levelor any
other obstruction with the opening pointed down.
SEPARATIONOF TURNS
Forbest performance, separate allturns by at least4 ft. of straight duct,
including distance between last turn and exhaust hood.
TURNS OTHERTHAN 90°
• Oneturn of 45° or lessmay be ignored.
• Two 45° turns should betreated as one 90° turn.
• Eachturn over 45° should be treated as one 90° turn.
SEALING OF JOINTS
• Alljoints should betight to avoid leaks.The male end of each section of
duct must point away from the dryer
• Theduct shall not beassembled with screwsor other fastening means
that extend into the duct and catch lint.
• Duct joints can be made air and moisture-tight by wrapping the
overlapped joints with duct tape.
• Horizontal runs should slope down toward the outdoors 1/2 inch per foot.
INSULATION
Duct work that runs through an unheated area or is near airconditioning
should be insulated to reduce condensation and lint build-up.
