(DV40J3000EW) Hello there Batman1! This model can be side-vented using the DV-2A/XAA vent kit. All dryers must be exhausted to the outside. The required exhaust duct is 4 inches (10.2 cm) in diameter. Use only those foil-type flexible ducts, if any, specifically identified for use with the appliance by the manufacturer and that comply with the Outline for Clothes Dryer Transition Duct, Subject 2158A shall be used. See “Ducting Requirements” in installing your dryer section for the maximum duct length and number of bends shall be used. The total length of flexible metal duct shall not exceed 2.4 m. Do not assemble the duct with screws or other fastening means that extend into the duct and catch lint. The hood should have at least 12 inches (30.5 cm) of clearance between the bottom of the hood and the ground or other obstruction. The hood opening should point down.
