Ventilation
The air required for drying is taken from the room where the dryer is installed.
Ensure sufficient room ventilation, e.g., by means of ventilation openings that cannot be
closed in the exterior wall.
- It must not be possible to seal off ventilation openings.
- If liquid gas-heated machines are being set up below ground level (e.g., in a cellar), ob-
serve the technical regulations for liquid propane.
- The room ventilation is only working properly if no low pressure occurs. Avoid low pres-
sure, e.g., by means of ventilation openings in the exterior wall. This will ensure that:
– The exhaust air is fully discharged from this tumble dryer.
– The gas demonstrates the required combustibility.
- For each tumble dryer, there must be a cross section of 52.5 sq in. (339 cm
tion opening.
The tumble dryer draws in air at the back. Therefore, there must be a sufficiently large gap
between the back of the machine and the wall.
This would otherwise hinder a sufficient flow of air as well as the operational perfor-
mance of the tumble dryer.
Observe the necessary spacing between the machine and the wall.
Do not reduce the gap between the bottom of the tumble dryer and the floor (e.g., toe-
kicks, deep pile carpet).
Exhaust air management
The tumble dryer must only be operated if the humid exhaust air generated during drying
is conveyed outside through installed vent ducting.
The exhaust air should not be vented into a wall, a ceiling, or a concealed space of build-
ing.
Exceptions regarding the design of the exhaust air management system must be de-
signed in accordance with the applicable local building regulations. Seek approval from
the relevant building inspector.
- While installing the ducting, keep the tumble dryer disconnected from the power supply.
- Make sure that the plug connections are fully sealed.
- The duct is not to be assembled with screws or other fastening means that extend into
the duct and catch lint
- Only use heat-resistant materials with a temperature resistance of at least 175°F (80°C).
- Only use rigid metal duct. Consult local building codes.
- Condensation will form in the exhaust air management system. A condensate drain must
therefore be placed at the lowest point in the system.
The opening of the vent ducting (e.g., a wall pipe) must be arranged in such a way that the
humid exhaust air:
- does not flow back into the room where the tumble dryer is installed
- does not cause damage or unacceptable disturbance
