Guideline for Transition Ducts
In December 2006, Underwriters Laboratories introduced UL 2158A, “Clothes Dryer Transition Duct”, an approved standard for flexible, high-temperature transition ducts, rated to 430 °F., for both electric and gas dryers (this standard is also part of IRC M1502.4.3 and IMC 504.8.3)

The transition duct is a flexible duct that connects the back of the dryer to the exhaust vent in the exterior wall. The requirements for transition ducts are as follows:

  • Must be a single length connecting sections disallowed
  • Can’t be concealed within construction, such as passing through floors, walls, hidden spaces, etc., or be longer than 8 feet
  • Only flexible ductwork listed, labeled, and in compliance with UL 2158A can be used

Types of Transition Ducts

  • Flexible foil ducts
  • Flexible semi-rigid ducts
