This video explains how to make your dryer vent more efficient and why it is a smart thing to do.

Having a hard piped dryer vent with as few bemds as possible will make it easier for your dryer to exhaust the hot moist air. This means your dryer does not have to work as hard which saves energy and increases the life of the dryer.

I estimate that replacing a corrigated flexible vent with a straight hard metal or plastic exhaust pipe can save 2-5% on your energy bill and extend the life of the dryer 2-5 years.
