Description
Dry your clothes faster and prevent lint build up with the new Dryer Duct Booster®.
Clothes dryers are often installed in areas of homes where they cannot work effectively. This is because moist air cannot effectively exit the dryer and exhaust to the outside—bogging down the entire drying process. If a dryer’s vent run is over 25 equivalent feet* or the dryer is experiencing long drying time, your dryer may need a dryer booster fan. The Dryer Duct Booster can also reduce the potential fire hazard associated with lint buildup.
* When using equivalent feet a 90° elbow equals 5 feet and a 45° elbow equals 2.5 feet. Some dryers can exhaust beyond 25 equivalent feet without a booster fan.
Dryer Duct Booster Saves significant energy - reduces drying times 50% or more. Reduces lint build-up, dust & fire hazards by maintaining proper velocity in duct runs up to 150 equivalent feet. Features the Lint Blitzer™ material handling wheel & 5 year no-clog guarantee. 50 watt motor is not exposed to heat, lint or moisture. Includes 115 VAC cord - automatic operation. Suitable for gas and electric dryers.
The LB2 is Listed to the updated DEDPV, Dryer Exhaust Duct Power Ventilator supplement to UL705 & CSA C22.2 #113-12. The 2015 IRC restricts the use of dryer booster fans to those tested to the DEDPV supplement. Incorporating dryer booster fans in clothes dryer ducts has increased substantially with the placement of laundry rooms not adjacent to outside walls. Duct runs often exceed 25 equivalent feet (90 degree elbows equal 5 additional feet of duct length, 45 degree elbows equal 2.5 feet) that many clothing dryer manufacturers set as a maximum duct length. The LB2 booster fan is rated for duct lengths up to 150 equivalent feet.
