Product review (4 stars): Side Vent Duct Installation
The duct came well-packed in a box within a box. I installed the right-side vent option. The instructions were OK, but they could have been clearer as to sequence. The duct is installed after first removing the rear duct, then the side cover, by reaching through the hole vacated by the rear duct and pressing the release tabs inward. Be careful; there are a lot of sharp edges inside. Do not try taking off the dryer's rear cover or base. You must work through the side and rear vent holes. Remove the rear duct/extension. When installing the new duct, it is best to slide the elbow into the dryer and put it off to the side, before installing the duct extension, otherwise it will be difficult to impossible to get it in with the duct extension installed. I found the most difficult part to be applying the duct tape after the assembly was installed. Once installed the side duct lined up perfectly with the house's outside vent, which is in the wall immediately next to the right side of the dryer.
