Helpful Tips for Clothes Dryer Vent Booster Fans
Most residential clothes dryers are designed to vent approximately 15 feet of duct. With the introduction of main floor and second story laundry rooms, duct runs have become complex, often exceeding dryer manufacturers’ recommendations. The results are longer drying times, greater wear and tear on the dryer and higher energy costs.
- The DVK fan should be mounted at least fifteen linear feet from the clothes dryer.
- Each 90-degree elbow is equivalent to five linear feet of duct.
- DVK fans are designed to vent up to 100 feet of 4-inch rigid duct.
- Rigid duct is recommended to optimize the fans performance.
- If using flex duct, it should be stretched as smooth as possible.
- For duct runs in unheated spaces, Continental Fan recommends insulated duct to reduce the effects of condensation.
- An LT100 Lint Trap may be installed between the dryer and the booster fan to reduce lint build-up and maintenance on the fan.
