$5 DIY LG Wash Tower Gas Dryer Left Side Vent Kit

LG Wash Tower WKGX201HBA
$5 DIY Left Side Vent Kit
Update 2022-03-10: Use this video to figure out how to cut the vent pipe that comes with the LG WashTower. After the video, I had to make a couple of adjustments to use foil tape to tape the vent pipe to the blower as well as use a metal sheet screw to secure the vent pipe to the left side wall of the dryer. Overall, it's been working great for over 2 months since it was installed.
In my video, I cut the 20.25" vent pipe that comes with the unit wrong. I suggest you just cut it in half and save yourself the aggravation of measuring. The vent pipes move around a little after you install, so you can adjust about 1" or so in several directions to make it fit well.
LG Gas Dryers cannot vent to the right side (when looking at the dryer from the front). The rigid interior gas pipe partially blocks the right-side vent pipe opening, so you cannot get a rigid vent pipe on that side.
Tools and supplies needed:
1. Hack saw to cut the vent pipe in half
2. Hammer and flat screwdriver to pop out the left side vent cover
3. Nashua aluminum duct tape (I had some already)
4. Buy $5 90-degree elbow for dryer ventilation
5. Phillips screw driver to remove vent screw
6. Make sure your hands can fit though the dryer vent openings
If you cannot make your own kit, buy the LG Side Venting Kit 3911EZ9131X for about $80+ with shipping and/or tax. If you look at the pictures of the LG Side Venting Kit, you will see that the two pipes are about the same size (10").
I didn't notice this until after I cut my vent pipe incorrectly. Again, just cut it in half to get about 2 10" pipes that you can use to create your own kit.
The hardest part of making your own kit is to cut the vent pipe. The installation is a little challenging as well, but just need to be able to put your hands through the vent openings to connect. Pre-tape as much as possible with Nashua foil tape to install the back section with the 90-degree elbow.
Tape the left pipe to the elbow from the back opening.
After I finished the video, it took over two weeks to install the WashTower due to the custom laundry cabinets being delayed. Anyways, I has to tape the vent pipe with foil tape to inside blower and also use screws to secure the pipe to the side dryer wall. These two things are not shown in the video since I did them two weeks later when the unit was moved and the vent pipe came loose without foil tape and without screws securing it.
