We understand your inquiry about the installation and ducting requirements for the DLE8400WE Dryer. For optimal performance and safety, the vent system of the DLE8400WE Dryer should be installed using rigid or semi-rigid metal ductwork. The use of a dryer semi-rigid kit is generally recommended because it provides a smooth interior surface and limits kinks or crushing, which helps with airflow and prevents duct clogging. This model even features a FlowSense™ Duct Clogging Indicator to help us maintain proper ventilation. While not explicitly mandatory over rigid metal, using a semi-rigid kit is a great option for a safe and efficient installation. https://www.bestbuy.com/product/lg-7-3-cu-ft-smart-electric-dryer-with-sensor-dry-alpine-white/JJ8VPZHT66 If you have any further questions about the venting options or the installation process, please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport, and our team will be more than happy to assist you. —Renzo
