Gas Supply Requirements
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use a new CSA International approved gas supply line.
Install a shut-off valve.
Securely tighten all gas connections.
If connected to propane, have a qualified person make
sure gas pressure does not exceed 13" (33 cm) water
column.
Examples of a qualified person include:
licensed heating personnel,
authorized gas company personnel, and
authorized service personnel.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
This installation must conform with all local codes and
ordinances. In the absence of local codes, installation must
conform with American National Standard, National Fuel Gas
Code ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or CAN/CSA B149.

The design of this dryer has been certified by CSA International
for use at altitudes up to 10,000 ft (3,048 m) above sea level at
the BTU rating indicated on the model/serial plate. Burner input
adjustments are not required when the dryer is operated up to
this elevation.
When installed above 10,000 ft (3,048 m), a four percent (4%)
reduction of the burner BTU rating shown on the model/serial
plate is required for each 1,000 ft (305 m) increase in elevation.
For assistance when converting to other gas types and/or
installing above 10,000 ft (3,048 m) elevation, contact your
local service company.
Type of Gas
This dryer is equipped for use with natural gas. It is
design-certified by CSA International for propane and butane
gases with appropriate conversion. No attempt shall be made
to convert the dryer from the gas specified on the serial/rating
plate for use with a different gas without consulting the serving
gas supplier. Conversion must be done by a qualified service
technician.
Gas conversion kit part number is W10402145. This part number
is also available on a label on the gas valve burner base.

Venting Requirements
WARNING:
To reduce the risk of fire, this dryer MUST BE
EXHAUSTED OUTDOORS.
IMPORTANT: Observe all governing codes and ordinances.
The dryer exhaust must not be connected into any gas vent,
■
chimney, wall, ceiling, attic, crawlspace, or a concealed space
of a building. Only rigid or flexible vent shall be used for
exhausting.
Only a 4" (102 mm) heavy, metal exhaust vent and clamps
■
may be used.
Do not use an exhaust hood with a magnetic latch.
■
Use clamps to seal all joints. Do not use screws or other
■
fastening devices that extend into the interior of the duct
and catch lint. Do not use duct tape.
Do not use plastic or metal foil vent.
■
Rigid metal vent:
Recommended for best drying performance and to avoid
■
crushing and kinking.
Flexible metal vent (acceptable only if accessible to clean):
Must be fully extended and supported in final dryer location.
■
Remove excess to avoid sagging and kinking that may result
■
in reduced airflow and poor performance.
Do not install in enclosed walls, ceilings, or floors.
■
The total length should not exceed 7
■
An exhaust hood should cap the vent to prevent rodents and
insects from entering the home or business.
Exhaust hood must be at least 12" (305 mm) from the ground
or any object that may be in the path of the exhaust (such as
flowers, rocks, or bushes).
If using an existing vent system, clean lint from the entire length
of the system and make sure exhaust hood is not plugged with
lint. Replace any plastic or metal foil vent with rigid metal or
flexible metal vent.
Plan installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns.
