Supply air and exhaust air management
The air required for drying is taken from the room where the dryer is
installed. Therefore, 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 aeration and ventilation openings.
- For each tumble dryer, there must be a cross section of 237 cm
per ventilation 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.
Do not block the gap between the bottom of the tumble dryer and
the floor with plinth facings, deep pile carpet, etc.
This would hinder a sufficient flow of air to the dryer and prevent it
from working properly.
The tumble dryer must only be operated if the humid exhaust air
generated during drying is led outside through an installed vent
ducting.
Any exceptions regarding the design of the exhaust air manage-
ment system must comply with the applicable local building regula-
tions. Seek approval from the relevant building inspector where ne-
cessary.
- While installing the ducting, keep the tumble dryer disconnected
from the mains power supply.
- Make sure that the plug connections are fully sealed.
- Only use heat-resistant materials with a temperature resistance of
at least 80 °C.
- 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 in-
stalled.
- Does cause damage or unacceptable disturbance.
The air required for drying is taken from the room where the dryer is
installed. You must therefore ensure that the room is sufficiently vent-
ilated. Otherwise, there is a risk of suffocation due to exhaust gases
being sucked back from other technical systems or fuel-burning in-
stallations, and the drying time will be much longer.
