    Just a handy tip if you don't have an adapter that fits your hose perfectly. I see a lot of 3D printed ones that address this problem and I see a lot of videos of people using ugly aluminum tape by the pound. Don't tape it AFTER you connect, tape the male adapter end BEFORE with blue painters tape. The simple answer to most of these misfitting hose to coupler is just build up about 1/4" of blue painters tape on the male end of any duct adapter, now slide the hose over the tape and, poof, perfect fit. In many case, don't worry about the clamps, just put enough blue tape on the adapter to it fits super snug, but if you want to clamp, you have this nice semi solid seal of the blue tape. All this talk about gaping of the hose when you clamp is taken care of.

      Hi Judy! Glad this was helpful. In regards to how much dust it produces while venting outdoors... I haven’t had any issues with buildup on the outside of my house. It seems to dissipate in the air pretty efficiently. I have yet to notice any areas right outside my vent that would need cleaned. The odor is mild in my opinion as well but it is slightly noticeable outside while the machine is running. My connected neighbor doesn’t have any issues with it.

    HI Catharine, I was wondering if you tried the Ducting Reducer Increaser Cone made by infinity. I am in the middle of creating a venting system for my k40. The one by LEAK FREE is a lot more expensive and I am aware from your video that you have tried many connectors. Did you try the one from Infinity? It is a lot less expensive and that would be nice to save some money but not if it doesn't work well. Thank you...:)

      Oh no! 🤨 It did help reduce odor but I actually ended up using some aluminum tape around the edges of where my reducers meet the hoses since I ended up having leakage. That helped. It would be helpful to check for leaks like that and do it when it’s darker in the room and use a flashlight since it shows up better.
