Q: Questionis the dyer vent on the left side at the top or on bottom by floor

Asked 1 year ago by Dave.

• A:Answer Hello, Dave! Our dryers are shipped from the factory ready for rear venting. However, the venting options available are through the back, left side, right side, and bottom of the dryer (EXCEPTION: Gas dryers cannot be vented out of the left side due to the burner housing). If needing to change the venting direction, a Directional Exhaust Kit is available for purchase.
