Gas requirements
WARNING
• Use only natural or LP (liquid propane) gases.
• The installation must be conformed with local
codes, or in the absence of local codes, with the
national fuel gas code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54,
latest revision (for the UNITED STATES), or with
the natural gas and propane installation code,
CSA B149.1 (for Canada).
• Gas dryers are equipped with a burner vent for
use with natural gas. If you plan to use your
dryer with LP (liquid propane) gas, it must be
converted for safe and proper performance by
a qualified service technician. (LNG models
only)
You must check the burner of your model and
use the proper LP Kit accordingly. To check the
detail information of the burner, open the door
and check the rating label location on the door
frame.

• A 1/2" (1.27 cm) gas supply line is
recommended and must be reduced to connect
to the 3/8" (1 cm) gas line on your dryer. The
National Fuel Gas Code requires that an
accessible, approved manual gas shut-off valve
be installed within 6" of your dryer.
• Gas dryers installed in residential garages
must be raised 18 inches (46 cm) above the
floor.
• Additionally, a 1/8" (0.3 cm) N.P.T. (National
Pipe Thread) plugged tapping, accessible
for test gauge connection, must be installed
immediately upstream of your dryer's gas
supply connection.
• Your dryer must be disconnected from the gas
supply pipe system during any pressure testing
of the system.

• Do not reuse old flexible metal gas lines.
Flexible gas lines must be designed and
certified by the standard for connectors for Gas
Appliances, ANSI Z21.24 • CSA 6.10.
NOTE
• Your dryer uses an automatic ignition system
to ignite the burner. There is no constant
burning pilot.
• Any pipe joint compound used must be
resistant to the action of any liquefied
petroleum gas.
• As a courtesy, most local gas utilities will
inspect a gas appliance installation.

WARNING
• Gas leaks may occur in your system, creating a
dangerous situation.
• Gas leaks may not be detected by smell alone.
• Gas suppliers recommend you purchase and
install a UL-approved gas detector.
