“Is it possible to hook this in to oval shaped vent? I just bought a samsung dryer with this kit, the dryer vent in my house (new construction) is oval and not a perfect round. Is it possible to hook the elbows that comes with this kit to the oval shape outlet? I couldn't really find any oval adapters for dryer vent. Is it flexible enough to make it oval shaped elbow? Can you please help? Thanks, Barani”

The elbow piece is extremely rigid so I don't think it could be manipulated to be oval, but I think you could attach just the venting to an oval using the clamps and then finalize the install with wrapping with the metal tape that comes with it. There are instructions with the vent kit, so maybe you can look at those on line first before purchasing.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They make an oval to round 4” adapter for this. Just google it. Just found out I had the same issue.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You would need a round to oval adapter such as this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-Round-to-Oval-Duct-Adapter-R2OHD/300456306
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No it will not hook a oval tube.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I'm sure you could cut slits in elbow and use some kind of duct tape tom make it work.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It should be able to. I just installed mine today. What didn't work for me was the periscope kit. That ONLY works with the circle adapters. My house is a new construction and this kit worked perfectly. Cheers
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No, but we hooked ours up ourselves. The kit we bought didn't work with our existing vent because it was 20 years old.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Should be easy enough to mold to your opening. Enjoy your dryer!!!
