EXHAUST VENTING
Select the route that will provide the straightest and most direct path outdoors. Plan the
installation to use the fewest number of elbows and turns. Avoid making 90° turns.
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as possible. Bend flexible
metal vent gradually to avoid kinking.
