Abstract

The dryer hose attachment apparatus provides a coupling with more than one embodiment. Each coupling rotationally engages the outlet hose provided for the dryer and the initial hose of a flex hose provided for exhausting air from a dryer environment. Each coupling provides for sealing the dryer exhaust air, from the dryer to the flexible exhaust hose. Each coupling provides for the apparatus to be fitted and to operate in close confines typical to clothes dryer environments. The flange of the dryer attachment may be fixed to the dryer via fasteners. The interior of the outlet hose of the dryer attachment provides sizing for interference fit around an existing hose which exits a dryer. And, both means of engagement may be employed.
