Metal Wall Hoods for Dryer Exhaust
Galvanized steel, stainless steel and copper wall hoods for dryer exhaust air applications. The caps have no bug screen, which can clog with lint, but do include an external backdraft damper (flapper) to minimize cold air back drafting into the house through the dryer. The hoods offer excellent protection against the elements.
The round tail pieces are designed to attach directly to standard sized round duct.

| #2 | Q: My current dryer hood is attached to a wooden board with screws. Is this an option with your metal wall hood for dryer exhaust or is it sufficient to simply connect the hood to the dryer duct? -- Thanks A: It is always advisable to have a secondary fastener method with these, whether screws or clips on the edges. The duct would likely hold it, but not tight enough to side of house for leak protection. Also, caulk the edges. Asked on 2020-12-11 by Sarah |
