Not sure if this is the correct section to post this.
I took my dryer out to clean out the inside and realized that the builder used a male to male vent pipe through the wall from the service porch to the garage. This pass through pipe has a flange so I can’t just pull it out. The pipe coming out of my dryer is a male. They had a flexible vent hose attached between the two which seemed to work ok put tends to collect lint do to its shape. I replace the flexible pipe with a few solid 90° sheet metal pieces. I cut a custom female piece that I put onto the male coming out of the wall from the garage and pushed it up against the flange. I then used 2ea 90’s, males pointing downstream with the first 90° coming from the wall with the male pushed in the female to touch the male pipe going through the wall. The question I have is should I add some Rectoseal high temp silicone sealant to the inside of the custom female piece where the 2 male pipes touch so not to have any lint build up
Hope my description makes sense.
