Description
Ensure maximum efficiency and safety for your electric dryer with the Whirlpool 4396010RP 6 FT Dryer Secure Connect Vent. This durable, flexible aluminum duct efficiently channels hot, damp air out of your appliance and away from your home, preventing lint buildup and fire hazards associated with poor venting.
