Kenmore Elite Dryer Duct Parts

The Venting Kit is an OEM part for LG dryers. This part offers flexibility and efficiency in dryer installation and setup, this kit enables side or bottom venting of the appliance, facilitating optimal use of space in your laundry area. It's ideal for situations where the traditional rear venting is not feasible or preferred. 

Causes of venting system issues can include blockages, incorrect installation, or the use of incompatible parts, leading to reduced efficiency and potential safety hazards, such as overheating or fire risks.  

Symptoms of a bad or improperly installed venting system include:

• Extended drying times
• Excessive humidity or heat in the laundry area
• Unusual noises during operation
• Accumulation of lint in and around the dryer

This OEM LG part is also compatible with some Kenmore models.

This dryer duct assembly channels air from the drum to the blower and exhaust. Replacing a cracked or warped housing restores proper airflow, helps prevent lint bypass, and supports consistent drying performance.

• Helps maintain drying efficiency by minimizing leaks and lint bypass
• Damage or warping can lead to long dry times and reduced airflow
• Signs of failure include visible cracks, melted spots, or air/lint leakage around the duct area

• Disconnect power; for gas models, turn off the gas supply
• Access from the front by removing the top and front panel
• Note fastener locations and any attached brackets/harnesses, then transfer them to the new assembly
• Vacuum lint from internal ducting and verify seals before test run
