Not sure what youre asking but yes you must have a dryer hose that connects to a vent leading directly outside,if there is no vent and one must be installed; take care as to where the hot moist air will be blowing to.

Dryer gets hot, turns but does not dry. I have cleaned the filter inside (big round one) and the small one on the front behind the door. No airflow coming out rear of unit.

Your outlet vent line is probably clogged with lint, etc. Usually it gets clogged either right at the dryer's outlet or at the outside port. First remove the flexible vent hose from the back of the dryer and clean away any lint or debris buildup, then check the rest of the line and outside port. Birds sometime like to build nests at the outside ports that are configured up high enough and the outside ports that are low will sometimes get toads/frogs in them. You can simply use a vacuum hose on anything you can't reach by hand.

The hose connecting the dryer to the outside vent has separated into two pieces with the inside wire exposed. The outside of the hose has a metal coating. I'm not sure of thr exact model number but it is a...

purchase a new hose and do the work yourself, its a lot cheaper and not difficult to change out, at most one hour to remove the old damaged hose and replace it!!! Contacting an appliance review will cost you anywhere from 100 to $200 bucks for something you could do for $15

What does AF error mean on Cabrio electric dryer

AF on your Cabrio means the Air Flow is being obstructed. Make sure the vent is secure and free of debris at the back of the appliance. Also ensure there is no obstruction where it is vented outside of your home. Lastly, make sure the lint trap is clean. Your dryer will still run normally, but it's best to go through your checklist so no further issues arise.

I have to run the dryer cycle three times before the clothes are dry.

Your exhaust is probably clogged. Your macnine must be able to breathe.

Pull your machine away from the wall and check that hose all the way to the outside. Check that outside vent device as well, make sure it will open and close as is necessary. While you have it open, run a vacuum hose into the dryer to assure no clogging internally.

If you can do it, I suggest you replace your plastic hose with a aluminized hose available at ACE and other good hardware stores.

My Inglis dryer has condensation on the inside of

normally condensation on the inside of a dryer is due to a pinched or plugged vent hose i have had this happen also when the dryer vent is very short and goes outside where the temperater outside is cold and moisture will condense on inside of dryer
if you live in a colder location there is a vent system
that you can install that will allow you to keep heat inside not reccomended for gas dryer the vent cap on the outside could also be missing the flap that stop air from going back into dryer hope one of these suggestions i a solution to your problem

Exhaust Need to install side exhaust on maytag dryer

There will be an indented area about 4 inches in diameter if your able to put one in easily. Other wise you'll need either a hole saw 4" or cut a hole in the side of the dryer but before you do make sure your inside piping will reach the new area you want to come from.
Another suggestion would be make a base for your dryer to set on 6 to 8" high cut a hole in the side of it and in the top where you can run the dryer hose through then continue on outside with the hose-vent.

If this helps you please rate me accordingly and good luck.
