Description

This dryer elbow is the molded duct connector that redirects exhaust from the dryer to the vent duct, helping restore proper airflow and reduce leaks around the outlet. It's a simple replacement for a cracked or loose elbow. What it does:

• Connects the dryer's exhaust outlet to the home vent duct to direct hot, moist air outside
• Replaces cracked, broken, or warped elbows that cause air leaks or rattling
• Helps reduce lint escape and improves exhaust path integrity when fitted properly
• Can eliminate visible gaps or misalignment at the dryer outlet

What's included:

• One dryer elbow part

Install notes:

• Disconnect power (and gas supply for gas dryers) before servicing; follow all safety warnings
• Remove the dryer from the wall enough to access the outlet; loosen or remove clamps to swap the elbow
• Use appropriate duct clamps or approved tape to secure connections; ensure vent is clear of lint
