Product review (1 stars): This product was a disappointment all around
This product was a disappointment all around. I was installing three sets of LG laundry appliances for a client with a triplex rental, and needed to side vent the dryers in order for them to fit comfortably inside of the closets we selected for the laundries.

I looked at the LG cut sheet to find the appropriate part number for the side vent kit, then ordered this. The first installation couldn't accept the kit at all because the gas connection blocked the path of the vent pipe, so I ended up finding a street elbow and squeezing the vent behind the dryer, just barely clearing the closet doors.

The second installation needed to side vent on the opposite side of the appliance so the gas pipe wasn't a problem, but the outside diameter of pipe A was almost exactly the same as the appropriate end of the elbow so I ended up spending an hour trying to get the pieces to fit together, before eventually putting a small crimp into the pipe and squeezing it inside of the elbow. Pipe B was only long enough to have about a half inch exposed outside of the dryer for attaching the vent hose, which made it difficult to attach to the outside vent. On top of all this, the connections are not mechanical and so I had to struggle through getting tape inside through the four-inch hole and around the duct, then peeling off the tape and attaching it. Needless to say, this took a couple of tries because the hole was only big enough for one hand.

Fortunately, the third installation was able to vent out the back, using the pipe installed at the factory. I will think twice before buying an LG dryer in the future, especially if it will be installed in a tight space.
