makes sense and PVC is cheap.

Group, any reason not to use PVC?


2 big reasons not to use PVC.

1. It is against most building codes.
2. The PVC will attract more lint than the metal due to static.
I clean dryer vents everyday and PVC causes the lint to "sheet" and
harden which blocks the vent once an edge gets loose.
