How to install a dryer vent

[@monky6690]

This video just saved my life. The dryer broke and my mother said if I didn’t fix it I’d have to live on my own because this was the final straw- I’d already broken enough stuff around the house. Needless to say this video got the job done and I now don’t need to worry about finding a place that will hire someone in a wheelchair without a degree. Thank you so much! Hope you’re doing well.

[@edriguepetit]

Thank you so much for this detailed video especially as a single mom it truly helped me financially!!!

[@TomLeeman]

You are so welcome! Just glad I could help and thanks for watching

[@obaidfarghani9202]

this is the best video in the sense that it shows exactly what happens when u connect to the vent side first time - machine side is easy. twisting to clock wise will do the job 😊 Thanks for the share

[@TomLeeman]

Glad you liked it!

[@Victory_Accomplished]

Am not lying the video is the only video that actually showed us how to connect it on youtube which is mindblowing and it really helped thanks so much 😊

[@TomLeeman]

Glad I could help and thanks for watching

Your video helped a whole lot...I finally got the flex hose on, no more swearing! Thanks.

[@TomLeeman]

I feel ya sometimes it can be very frustrating trying to get these things to work congratulations and thanks for watching

[@kimberlyharris2774]

Thanks! I just ripped my pulling dryer out. This video is perfect!

[@TomLeeman]

Thanks

[@rejete1968]

Your video helped me greatly. I followed your instructions; as my vent tube clasp is the same as the one in your video. Didn't take long at all. Thanks. 12/5/21.

LMAO 0:14 IS EXACTLY HOW I FEEL WITH ALL THE DAMN BASKETS IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM. thanks for the tutorial!

[@TomLeeman]

You’re welcome good luck on the install thanks for watching

[@gpizanok]

NEVER use these type of flex hoses on your dryer. Always use the rigid pipe of semi rigid hose. These type of flexible hoses cause waaaay too much back pressure.

[@TomLeeman]

Thanks for the Tip I'm changing mine today

[@hopefullyhelpful1]

@@TomLeeman They can be fire hazards too.

[@kubectlgetpo]

And fire hazard

[@rhoodj]

I got one in my dryer for over 10 years. They say it is flammable. Is that true? but I see some semi rigid out there, they look like a better alternative but they come with so much headaches to mount them. I think I will buy the same again since it offers better flexibility to get the dryer closer to the wall/.

[@TomLeeman]

I purchased a semi rigid and put it on there it’s a little harder to get on but it’s supposed to be a better solution so I would recommend the semi rigid all steel exhaust I’ve got another video on how to how to do it good luck and thanks for watching

[@rhoodj]

@@TomLeeman I bought the Close Elbow kit semi rigid from Ebay for $18 after I have read some reviews saying the flexible vents are illegal and flammable. Thank you for advises guys.

[@BabyJay50]

Great video! I’m attempting its my first time.

[@TomLeeman]

Good luck you can do it thanks for watching

[@kubectlgetpo]

That type of flexible duct isn't meant for dryers. Buy the semi rigid flex which is made of thicker aluminum.

[@TomLeeman]

You are absolutely right and I did change it and got a new one

[@donovansharp799]

Ok so how do you fix the part in the wall. Mine is stuck inside the wall

[@TomLeeman]

I would have to see exactly what’s going on there to diagnose it but you can purchase long sleeves that go through the wall out to your vent Thanks for watching

[@jenniferp1149]

Thanks! About to try it...wish me luck! BTW, you made me laugh out loud when you got stuck behind the dryer! :)

[@lele1787]

OMG, I did it! Thank you 💗

[@TomLeeman]

Congratulations do it yourself. Thanks for watching.

[@judithbeckford7350]

Thank you!

[@TomLeeman]

You're welcome!

[@Cloutdrops]

thank you!!!

[@TomLeeman]

That’s all I wear 😂

[@slottygw2wvw842]

The you realize after tightening that cheap foil you will make holes into it

[@TomLeeman]

They also have ridgid ones that you can buy thanks for watching

[@PepsiManX360]

Always use metal instead of that trash.

[@markandbeverlyd]

Should not use that type of hose. Fire hazard

[@KT-ed8hj]

What about the hose is a fire hazard? This is the type of hose I see in every house I'm in

[@bry120]

Wt to use then?

[@MikeSmith-er7sz]

Has to be at least semi rigid pipe, foil pipe is illegal

[@TomLeeman]

Good tip and I have changed it and you can check out the video on my site where I do that and I put in a new dryer

[@Raselenas]

The hairy leg though 🤦🏼‍♀️

[@TomLeeman]

[@d.naiken8371]

Hairy legs help in replacing dryer vents
