​

Dryer Vent Installation Materials

​

  • Don't Use Foil or Vinyl Vents

    • Considered a fire hazard

    • Ridged interior easily collects and traps lint

    • Difficult to clean without puncturing or tearing

    • If a dryer fire does occur, can quickly spread fires

    • Easily crushed behind the dryer, cutting off proper airflow

    • Can develop sags in the vent line, enabling water and lint to collect

  • Don't Use PVC Vents

    • Considered a fire hazard

    • Static in PVC venting causes lint to stick to the inside of the vent walls, which can mix with the expelled water during a typical dry cycle, creating sludge and an increased risk of a fire

    • PVC sweats when warm moist air travels through the cool smooth surface. This moist air causes lint to collect and harden and, in turn, makes cleanings more difficult

    • PVC takes longer to heat up, allowing water to remain in vapor form inside the pipe. The water, along with the buildup of lint, creates sludge in the vent.

  • Do Use Rigid Metal

    • Code compliant material for dryer vents

    • Smooth interior finish that allows lint to easily pass through, making lint less likely to build up

    • Rated the safest for controlling fame spread
