Crushed Transition

A folded or compressed flexible connector behind the dryer — the most common single airflow loss.

All glossary terms

What is Crushed Transition?

What happens when a dryer is pushed flat against a wall over a protruding elbow, folding the flexible connector into a tight S. It can cost more airflow than the rest of the run combined and it happens on delivery day, in houses of any age. Nobody tells homeowners that a dryer needs clearance behind it, which is why this is found so consistently.
