A. 3/8"  exible gas connector
B. 3/8" dryer pipe
C. 3/8" to 3/8" pipe elbow

2. Connect vent to exhaust hood
Vent must  t over the exhaust hood. Secure vent to exhaust
hood with 4" (102 mm) clamp. Run vent to dryer location
using straightest path possible. Avoid 90° turns. Use clamps
to seal all joints. Do not use duct tape, screws, or other
fastening devices that extend into interior of vent to secure
vent, because they can catch lint.
