A:AnswerYou should not have to replace the outlet itself, but should be able to change out the cord coming from the machine. A new cord can be purchased at Best Buy or anywhere appliances are sold.

A:AnswerHi there. The LG DLEX4000W dryer is designed to be vented to the outside to ensure proper airflow and efficient drying performance. When it comes to venting the dryer, there are guidelines to follow to ensure effective venting over a long run. The recommended maximum vent length for the LG DLEX4000W dryer is 64 feet (19.5 meters). This measurement includes the straight vent length and any bends or elbows in the venting system. Longer vent runs can lead to reduced airflow and potential drying issues. To optimize the venting efficiency, it is best to minimize the number of bends, turns, and elbows in the venting system. Each bend or elbow can restrict airflow and may require additional length compensation. It is essential to use rigid or semi-rigid metal venting material rather than flexible plastic or foil venting. Metal venting offers better airflow and reduces the risk of lint buildup, which can be a fire hazard. Use a vent hood on the exterior of your home to prevent pests and debris from entering the vent. Ensure there is sufficient clearance around the vent hood to avoid obstruction. Regarding the need for a fan to help with venting on a long run, it depends on the specific setup and conditions. If the vent run is approaching or exceeding the recommended maximum length, and if there are many bends or elbows, a booster fan may be beneficial to enhance airflow. Booster fans are designed to improve the air movement through the venting system and can be installed in-line with the duct.
The required CFM (Cubic Feet per Minute) for a booster fan would depend on the specific venting configuration and the extent of the vent run. To determine the appropriate CFM rating for the booster fan, it is advisable to consult with a professional HVAC technician or a qualified appliance installer. They can assess the venting setup, consider any obstructions or restrictions, and recommend the suitable CFM rating for the booster fan based on the specific circumstances.

A:AnswerOurs was installed with a flexible hose but installer had snaked the hose. The dryer was not working, as described in the manual, because the passage was crimped off. Installer returned, shortened the hose to make a slightly angled but nearly direct connection to the vent (no snaking this time) and it has worked smoothly since, 6 months now.
