Installing the Dryer

Step 1: Position and Level the Dryer

Install dryer before washer. This allows room for

attaching exhaust duct.

Select a location with a solid floor. Dryers installed in

residential garages must be elevated 18 inches (46 cm)

above the floor.

No other fuel burning appliance should be installed in

the same closet with the dryer.

The dryer must not be installed or stored in an area

where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.

The dryers needs sufficient clearance and an adequate

air supply for proper operation and ventilation, and for

easier installation and servicing. (Minimum clearances

are shown below).

Figure 2

DRY2053N

**NOTE: For new installations, locate top of wall vent 42 inches (106.7 cm) above floor to make venting

easier to connect.

EExhaust duct clearance to combustible material 2 in. (5.1 cm)

Place the dryer in position, and adjust the legs until the

dryer is level from side to side and front to back. The

dryer must not rock.

Figure 3

IMPORTANT: In mobile home installations, gas

dryers MUST be permanently attached to the floor

at the time of installation. Order No. 526P3 Dryer

Installation Kit (available at extra cost) for a

manufactured (mobile) home installation. Follow

the instructions supplied with the kit.

Step 2: Connect Dryer Exhaust System

•DO NOT use plastic or thin foil ducting. Rigid

metal duct is recommended.

•Locate dryer so exhaust duct is as short as

possible.

•Be certain old ducts are cleaned before installing

your new dryer.

•Use 4 inch (102 mm) diameter rigid or flexible

metal duct.

•The male end of each section of duct must point

away from the dryer.

•Use as few elbows as possible.

•Use duct tape or pop-rivets on all duct joints.

•Ductwork that runs through unheated areas must

be insulated to help reduce condensation and lint

build-up on pipe walls.

To reduce the risk of fire and combustion

gas accumulation the dryer MUST be

exhausted to the outdoors.

W604

To reduce the risk of fire and the

accumulation of combustion gases, DO NOT

exhaust dryer air into a window well, gas

vent, chimney or enclosed, unventilated

area, such as an attic, wall, ceiling, crawl

space under a building or concealed space

of a building.

This gas appliance contains or produces a

chemical or chemicals which can cause

death or serious illness and which are

known to the State of California to cause

cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive

harm. To reduce the risk from substances in

the fuel or from fuel combustion, make sure

this appliance is installed, operated, and

maintained according to the instructions in

this manual.

•In mobile home installations, dryer exhaust duct

must be secured to mobile home structure.

•Dryer exhaust duct MUST NOT terminate under

mobile home.

•Dryer exhausts 220 cfm (measured at back of

dryer).

•Static pressure in exhaust duct should not be

greater than .6 inches water column (1.5 cm),

measured with manometer placed on exhaust

duct two feet (61 cm) from dryer (check with

dryer running and no load).

•Exhausting dryer in hard-to-reach locations can

be done by installing 521P3 Flexible Metal Vent

Kit (available as optional equipment at extra

cost).

•Failure to exhaust dryer properly will void

warranty.

NOTE: Venting materials are not supplied with the

dryer (obtain locally).

Exhaust Direction

The dryer can be exhausted to the outdoors through the

back, left, right or bottom of the dryer. EXCEPTION:

Gas dryers cannot be vented out the left side

because of the burner housing.

Dryer is shipped from factory ready for rear exhaust.

Exhausting the dryer through sides or bottom can be

accomplished by installing a Directional Exhaust Kit,

528P3, available as optional equipment at extra cost.

Exhaust System

For best drying results, recommended maximum

length of exhaust system is shown in Table 1.

To prevent backdraft when dryer is not in operation,

outer end of exhaust pipe must have a weather hood

with hinged dampers (obtain locally).

NOTE: Weather hood should be installed at least

12 inches (30.5 cm) above the ground. Larger

clearances may be necessary for installations where

heavy snowfall can occur.

Step 3: (Gas Dryer Only) Connect Gas

Supply Pipe

1. Make certain your dryer is equipped for use with

the type of gas in your laundry room. Dryer is

equipped at the factory for Natural Gas with a

3/8 inch NPT gas connection.

NOTE: The gas service to a gas dryer must

conform with the local codes and ordinances, or in

the absence of local codes and ordinances, with the

latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI

Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the CAN/CGA-B149, National

Gas Installation Code.

Natural Gas, 1000 Btu/ft3(37.3 MJ/m3) service must

be supplied at 6.5 ± 1.5 inch water column pressure.

For proper operation at altitudes above 3000 feet

(915 m) the natural gas valve spud orifice size must be

reduced to ensure complete combustion. Refer to

Table 2.

2. Remove the shipping cap from the gas

connection at the rear of the dryer. Make sure you

do not damage the pipe threads when removing

the cap.

3. Connect to gas supply pipe.

NOTE: When connecting to a gas line, an

equipment shut-off valve must be installed within

6 feet (1.8 m) of the dryer. An 1/8 in. NPT pipe plug

must be installed as shown for checking inlet

pressure. Refer to Figure 5.

To reduce the risk of gas leaks, fire or

explosion:

• The dryer must be connected to the type

of gas as shown on nameplate located in

the door recess.

• Use a new flexible stainless steel

connector.

• Use pipe joint compound insoluble in L.P.

(Liquified Petroleum) Gas, or Teflon tape,

on all pipe threads.

• Purge air and sediment from gas supply

line before connecting it to the dryer.

Before tightening the connection, purge

remaining air from gas line to dryer until

odor of gas is detected. This step is

required to prevent gas valve

contamination.

• Do not use an open flame to check for gas

leaks. Use a non-corrosive leak detection

fluid.

• Any disassembly requiring the use of

tools must be performed by a suitably

qualified service person.

4. Tighten all connections securely. Turn on gas and

check all pipe connections (internal & external)

for gas leaks with a non-corrosive leak detection

fluid.

NOTE: The dryer and its appliance main gas valve

must be disconnected from the gas supply piping

system during any pressure testing of that system

at test pressures in excess of 1/2 psi (3.45 kPa).

Refer to Step 8 (Check Heat Source).

L.P. (Liquefied Petroleum) Gas, 2500 Btu/ft3

(93.1 MJ/m3) service must be supplied at 10 ± 1.5 inch

water column pressure.

For proper operation at altitudes above 3000 feet (915 m)

the L.P. gas valve spud orifice size must be reduced to

ensure complete combustion. Refer to Tabl e 3 .

NOTE: DO NOT connect the dryer to L.P. Gas

Service without converting the gas valve. Install

L.P. Gas Conversion Kit 649P3, available at extra

cost.

Step 4: (Electric Dryer Only) Connect

Electrical Plug

Dryer requires 120/240 Volt or 120/208 Volt, 60 Hertz,

3 or 4 wire electrical suppy. Refer to serial plate for

specific electrical requirements.

NOTE: The wiring diagram is located behind the

control panel, inside the control cabinet.

Grounding Information

•This dryer must be connected to a grounded

metal, permanent wiring system; or an

equipment-grounding conductor must be run

with the circuit conductors and connected to the

equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the

dryer.

•The dryer has its own terminal block that must be

connected to a separate branch, 60 Hertz, single

phase circuit, AC (alternating current) circuit,

fused at 30 Amperes (the circuit must be fused

on both sides of the line). Electrical service for

the dryer should be of maximum rated voltage

listed on the nameplate. Do not connect dryer

to 110, 115, or 120 volt circuit.

•Heating elements are available for field

installation in dryers which are to be connected to

electrical service of different voltage than that

listed on nameplate, such as 208 Volt.

•If branch circuit to dryer is 15 feet (4.57 m) or

less in length, No. 10 AWG wire (copper wire

only), or as required by local codes. If over 15

feet (4.57 m), use No. 8 AWG wire (copper wire

only), or as required by local codes. Allow

sufficient slack in wiring so dryer can be moved

from its normal location when necessary.

•The power cord connection between wall

receptacle and dryer terminal block IS NOT

supplied with dryer. Type of power cord and

gauge of wire must conform to local codes.
