Q:Does the vent adapter fit all models of dryers, not just Whirlpool?

Answer This Question
A:Â As far as I know, the vent will fit all dryers with same diameter vents. Wirks best when dryer is in close proximity to the wall and outbound vent access.

A:Â Yes. The connecting pipes from the dryer and to the vent tube should be industry standard on all brands.

Answer This Question
A:Â Yes, one side is male and the other side is female. A few slits will need to be added to the male port to help collapse it so the flexible Vent hose can connect. Tin snips or even strong scissors is all that is needed to cut the slits in the thin aluminum port. The instructions explain it well that come with the vent.

A:Â Hi Chartchecker, Yes this model has both a male and female end for proper connection. We hope this helps.

Our dryer was on its last legs when we bought our & it wasn’t very big. When we bought a new bigger dryer, of course I didn’t think of the connection to the dryer vent. I already hooked up the washer & the location of the dryer is tight (see the picture). It was also a tight squeeze for the vent even for a flexible vent hose. My frustration level was beyond max since the flexible hose kept coming undone since there is no room to spare. This is where the Whirlpool Periscope comes in to save the day. I was able to trim it down to be able to fit it in the tight space (I was rushing and could have done more trimming as you can see in the picture). This made the dryer vent connection complete in minutes compared to the couple hours I spent trying to make the flexible one work. Definitely will recommend this product to others that have to work in tight spots for setting up dryers. It has been roughly a year now with no issues to report.

Great Product!
This product allowed us to get the back of the dryer as close as 3 inches from the wall. It was easy to install and only took about 30 minutes to install it. This made it possible for us to have the front load dryer in the space provided in our laundry room and gave enough clearance for the laundry room door to close.

Worked out perfectly
I bought this because I made a built in pedastil for my washer and dryer. They were raised 20" and closer to the wall so the conventional corrugated tube wouldn't work this was adjustable to the height and ANGLE I needed, I couLdnt have made the project work without it.
Plan ahead!!

Works Well
The installation wasn't too easy, because you need to push the dryer into place and connect one end at the same time. That is not a fault of the product, but just know that going in. Also, if your exhaust vent to the outside if very close to the corner of a wall, the corner of the vent will hit the wall when you use the vent at an angle.
Make sure to use the crimp side for the connection to the outside vent, and the smooth side for the exhaust vent from the dryer. It will not work otherwise, and will leak exhaust.
It saved me a bunch of space, a traditional aluminum flex tube was around 6.5" and this was about 4.5". I needed the vent to be under 5.5", so I was very pleased with how the installation ended up.
A tin snip is required to trim the vent to size.

Adjustable dryer vent.
Easy to adjust, but had to buy some tin snips to cut off excess metal, which left sharp edges. It solved my problem of lining up my dryer to the dryer vent, which was not simple. It did the job...
