Dryer Vent

[cpennick (Carl Pennick, HI 065)]

Should I recommend that the flexible duct on this dryer vent be replaced or shortened with a smooth lined pipe. It runs up though the roof.

Thanks

Yes, smooth pipe is the best to help prevent problems in the future.

Yes, smooth will prevent problems in the future. Wat to much hose for function.

Flexible duct only in the room in which the appliance sits…
