Smooth-wall 4-inch metal duct — the only material permitted inside walls and ceilings.

What is Rigid Metal Duct?

Concealed dryer exhaust must be smooth-wall rigid metal, joined so the interior stays smooth in the direction of airflow, with no screws penetrating into the airway. The reason is mechanical rather than bureaucratic: every ridge, seam or projecting screw tip is a shelf that catches lint, and concealed duct cannot be inspected or effectively cleaned.
