How to Exhaust a Samsung Dryer Out the Side

Like most clothes dryers, Samsung's exhaust out the back. This configuration works well in most homes; however, not all laundry rooms have an exhaust vent directly behind the dryer. If your vent is located to the side, Samsung recommends the use of the DV-1A side vent kit for dryers. This universal kit fits all Samsung models.
