Need 90 degree outlet adapter for Hoover Tumble Dryer

[Klaus_K]

Hi, my old AEG tumble dryer has finally given up the ghost, so I've just bought a Hoover VTV 580NC. The only problem is that I haven't got much depth behind the dryer so I need to run the duct off to the side (there isn't a side outlet like there are on some dryers).

My old dryer had a 90 degree connector, that clipped into the back of the unit and then went straight off to the side. I had hoped I could use the same connector but it seems that the Hoover has a slightly smaller hole

So, can anybody suggest a place where I can buy such an item? Google is having a devil of a job finding a match and I'm getting loads of false results. Doesn't help that I don't really know the 'proper' name of the thing that I'm searching for!

Any help gratefully received - I've now got a working tumble dryer that I can't actually use

How about asking Hoover?

Worth a try, I'm just a cynic about getting support from companies.
