1st.....the Tasmanian devils are gone.......i just hope that 9 months from now, they don't have siblings...You wash out the dryer vent? I had some guy come and sweep it out from top to bottom.
I have all metal flex hose to dryer and all metal piping venting out to the roof.1st.....the Tasmanian devils are gone.......i just hope that 9 months from now, they don't have siblings...
2nd,.. yes, i remove the bendable (flexible) vent hose, (it is very light weight) i take it outside and run the garden hose thru it...
then place it back onto the drier, reapply the duct tape, at the window connection, to seal it, and run the drier for like 5 minutes to....dry it out.
if i try to run a brush thru it, it could puncture a hole, then i gotta got and buy another one. (happened to me years ago)
garden hose is easier...
you have the all metal "'solid" vent hose..???
i can't, the relationship from the drier to window is convoluted for me to have a "solid" venting hose.

ok, my dryer is in the basement, so the window is just above, to the right, i cannot use a solid "hose/vent", i need a few slight bends.I have all metal flex hose to dryer and all metal piping venting out to the roof.
Precipitation has relegated to a light, misty sense, but we received 1.40" so far!Staring out the window in disbelief: it's raining! No, really it is, for true. This could possibly move us off of the "extreme drought" list. Either way, we're still in peril. . .

never heard of a schedule 40 loop?My dryer contains two of the flat ducts like the first picture. One coming out of the dryer and going under the floor into a 4" schedule 40 loop I built ( no glue) then back up to the floor on the other side of the room, into another flat duct and out of the house. I access the crawl space through a trap door, take the schedule 40 apart and clean everything by hand. Takes about 20 minutes.
Schedule 40 is heavy sewer/water pipe. I used 4", made a big ol' C out of it under the floor to run from an interior wall where the dryer is to the exterior wall where it vents outside. 3 straight pieces of pipe, 2 90s and 2 flat ducts.never heard of a schedule 40 loop?
There are lots of does right now but in this section there were no doe permits given. I think the herds are still recovering from when the timber wolves went through.When I was stationed at Pease AFB in New Hampshire there was so many deer there that usually within a couple of hours you had shot one! The only restriction they had was we had to use shotguns. I would go crazy waiting all day.
