The dryer’s transition hose can be an important factor in saving energy. It can also be a critical factor in protecting property and even lives. Why? Dryer-caused home fires have been documented at levels exceeding 14,000 a year. Flammable lint accumulates quickly in every exhaust system (even when the lint filter cleaned with every load). This can create a very real fire danger.

DryerFlex Helps Protect Against Dangerous Kinks
For safety reasons and added peace of mind, only UL2158A listed ducting, like DryerFlex, should be used to connect the dryer’s exhaust system (non-listed hose such as that commonly used to vent bathroom fans should never be used). While building code and dryer manufacturers all require a UL 2158A listed transition duct, there are differences upon further testing. It is very common to find listed material that is fairly safe but does develop smoke and flame spread at lower temperatures.
DryerFlex is the only flexible duct that has zero flames spread and zero smoke developed meaning it withstands fire exposure up to 482° with zero development of smoke or fire.
Unlike zinc coated clamps, a stainless steel band delivers noticeably smoother operation. DryerClamps open fully so you can get them around the transition duct when you connect it to the wall (other clamps don’t). Their extended screw provides ample space for hex head drivers and makes power drill use a breeze. DryerClamps are built tough to help you move to the next job faster.
All stainless steel components ensure a super-long duty life and provide smoother operation. The exclusive multi-driver head makes projects easier without having to switch tools.
