Electronic Gas Dryer

* Most installations require a minimum 5”

(12.7 cm) clearance behind the dryer for the

exhaust vent with elbow. See Installations

Instructions, “Venting Requirements.”

Gas supply: Dryer is equipped for use with

NATURAL gas. Dryer can be converted to L.P. gas.

When rigid pipe is used it should be 1/2 inch IPS.

When acceptable to the gas supplier and local

codes, 3/8 inch approved tubing may be used for

lengths under 20 feet. For lengths over 20 feet,

larger tubing should be used. Pipe-joint

compounds resistant to the action of L.P. gas must

be used. If local codes permit, it is recommended

that new flexible metal tubing, design-certified by

AGA or CSA, be used for connecting the appliance

to the rigid gas supply line. (The gas pipe which

extends through the lower rear of the appliance

has 3/8 inch male pipe thread.) An individual

manual shutoff valve must be installed within 6

feet of the dryer in accordance with the National

Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

Electrical: A four-wire or three-wire, single

phase, 120-volt, 60 Hz, AC-only, electrical supply

is required on a separate 15 or 20 amp circuit,

fused on both sides of the line. A time-delay fuse

or circuit breaker is recommended.

Exhaust venting: Exhaust your dryer to the

outside. Four inch diameter vent is required. Rigid

or flexible metal exhaust vent must be used. Do

Not use plastic or metal foil vent. Exhaust outlet

hood must be at least 12 inches from the ground

or any object that may be in the path of the

exhaust.
