[@Ninja_Sloth]

Why cannot this be used with a gas dryer?

[@Ssups101]

Might want to fix the electrical strain connector on the dryer, the connector goes over the outer jacket of the cord, not the individual wires.

[@OldDocSilver]

Saw that right away. Good call

[@JuanDelArco]

HA! First thing too.

[@JimAllen-Persona]

First thing I caught too.

[@Caninedriver]

Yeah, that speaks to the value of THIS channel. I'm OUTTA' HERE!!!!

[@user-neo71665]

As an electrician that was one hell of a trigger

[@bobvecchi304]

While you’re at it you better repair that dryer cable that’s hanging out of the connector on the back of the dryer. The inner conductors are exposed. (1:03)😊

[@jjarm]

Improperly attached strain relief, 👍

[@xHadesStamps]

It’s actually the insulative sheathing for the inner wires that’s exposed, but those shouldn’t be, either.

[@jenna6256]

I like the magnet idea. I had this situation with my dryer and I moved the vent opening on the dryer to the side of the dryer instead of the back. Was super easy to do on my unit.

[@BrianBirchSmooth]

Just installed the MagVent 90. Thanks for the great video. I'm extremely pleased with the new look!

[@jhenniceamorrow5936]

The even and detailed explanation is greatly appreciated. Your videos are very helpful. Thank you.

[@FixThisHouse]

Thank you so much! 🙏🏽 I’m glad I could be of help!

*Fake praise account..*

[@brettkear2933]

I used this connector in my recent laundry renovation. Certainly not cheap but it is easy to install, works really well and will minimize lint buildup. A great product!!

[@Tricia_JoElle]

These are great! Very useful. Keep in mind, though.... HD dryers have a sensor telling the machine if the air flow is slow in exiting. This will cause the temp to go down as a precaution. I got a new house with an HD. I put one of these vents on the back, as with all of my previous dryers. Eventually I noticed that the dryer wasn't getting very hot. Finally, after taking 2 hours to dry a load of towels.... I called a repairman. he told me that there is an air flow sensor in most HD units. Mine sensed a slower flow due to the sharp turn, and automatically lowered the temp. He put a normal vent tube on it and I had my hot air back! it is not a danger with the air flow, while using the unit shown in the video. It's the high tech idiots who have to add all the BS on the new appliances. So if your temp goes down a bit after installing one, take it off, put a normal one on (with dryer pulled away from wall) and see if there's a difference... before calling a $100/visit from repairman.

[@SteveLionel]

I put one of these in a couple of years ago - it's great!

Dude are you fricking kidding me...that is sooooo slick and I want one !!!! Mine looks pretty much like the before picture and it has always made me a little uncomfortable....not only from a safety perspective but how it looks too. I had no idea they made these things. Already have it in my shopping list. Excellent installation video too brother. Well done !!!

[@benburnett8109]

ITs a code violation in the majority of states.

[@Alan_Edwards]

@@benburnett8109 I don't see why at all. Having the hose all bent and coiled around is a lot more unsafe. Still getting one. It's in my wish list already.

[@benburnett8109]

@Alan_Edwards awesome just make sure it is code compliant in your area.

[@Alan_Edwards]

@@benburnett8109 I would not even know how to go about doing that TBH. I'll never be selling this house so I can take my chances.

Definitely going to buy this one

[@Shadow.Dragon]

Great video! I'm definitely upgrading my inside and external vents!

[@commoncentsamerican]

Why? This is not a upgrade actually, the initial 90 degree turn this thing makes is horrible and restricts air flow. More clean up for you and you buying a new dryer more frequently. Just because something "looks good" doesn't make it good.

[@jameswatson4110]

Excellent video thanks

[@tekvenus]

Hooked it up. Didn't even know it existed before I saw your video, so thank you. My bunched up hose was getting clogged up constantly and burned out my heater coil. Hopefully this will put an end to that!

[@benburnett8109]

congrats, you installed a code violation. And the radical 90deg bends will retain heat and pose a fire risk. Do research. Don't burn you house down.

[@lzh3131]

This was another good video. I’m not sure if this is the solution to my problem, but am definitely going to do some measuring. Thanks again!

[@alphagraficks1772]

I love it. I installed MV-180. Looks great and easy to clean.

[@commoncentsamerican]

that initial 90 degree turn it makes will need you to clean it out about every 6 months. But hey at least it "looks good" behind a dryer........................

[@NEKingdom241]

I used this setup a few years ago, works great.

[@ivettenegron2624]

Wow, that is really nice and clean. I can't wait to upgrade my dryers vent holes. Thanks for sharing. Love your page.

[@beanolatte2682]

[@denisegreen1612]

Excellent video !!

[@stealthg35infiniti94]

Nice upgrade. Also the snake of extra tubing has a habbit of slowing down the exhaust and collecting a whole bunch of lint. Then you start noticing that the clothes take a lot longer to dry burning up electricity. This is what I experienced with my setup. I will do this upgrade in the near future.

[@Cuernavacachica02]

That was a great job, explained perfectly clearly! And boy does it look better! Thanks!

[@jamesgroves4346]

Great videos can you use this to go straight down through the floor?

[@MAJorgy70]

I like the idea of this dryer connection. I, myself would try to eliminate the flex hose because it looks like it makes the dryer stick farther out from the wall by about 4-5".

[@001SapoBBQ]

good job 👍

[@rjtumble]

We're about to build a house, this is definitely going in, great video, thanks.

[@FixThisHouse]

I the same way! Glad I could be of help! 🙏🏽😊

[@bevyofbabes]

They look nice and that magnetic attachment looks like a great idea however the 90 degree redirect is an airflow obstruction. You will be needing to clean that out more than usual. Ascetically it's beautiful however mechanically it's not as functional.

[@debhunt6224]

Love your channel but the one on my dryer goes though the floor. Is there one that works for the floor. Thanks!

[@mauroaparicio1855]

very interesting

[@kenbrown2808]

it looks like a good replacement for that flex vent. I went one better. when I redid the siding on my house, I installed my vent so I could fit the fitting on the dryer directly into the exterior vent.

The plus is that you’re a lot more likely to clean the vent if it comes off that easy. My vent is taped onto my dryer and I hate taking it apart to clean it. Those damn inserts never line up.

Thank you so much for posting this. I had no idea magnetic ducts existed. I will soon be installing a tall LG laundry tower into a closet space that has very little room on the sides and above. I was struggling with how I will be able to connect the duct. I will definitely use this method and will use your affiliate links to buy them. Thanks again!

What do you suggest for dryer exhausts that go up through the attic and roof? Old 1995 house and trying to find an economical way to fix my dryer venting setup. I don't think this magvent would work in my case?

[@genevelis6075]

I'm about to do something similar. To minimize the gap between dryer and the wall, can I cut in to the drywall?

[@mikeslater6246]

This is a great idea and I'll probably get one of these. But I do want to mention that whoever owned that dryer was not doing annual duct cleaning because that was a whole lot more than a Year's worth of Lent and that ductwork and the way they ran it, it was just a fire waiting to happen. That new vent system you installed will also make it extremely easy to clean it using the cleaning kits that are available to clean with the dryer in place.

[@FriscoPisco]

Great Product. Nice install job , You left one step out , you should of clean and caulk around where the vent stubs out from wall , 5 min fix , make it look professional !
