Dryer vent covers cap a dryer exhaust duct on the outside wall, built from SS304 stainless steel with a weatherproof rubber seal that blocks insects and moisture at the opening. Within the Exterior Louvers range, AirGrilles stocks the dryer vent cover inΒ silver, connecting to the round duct inΒ 4 neck sizes, 4, 5, 6, and 8 inches. The round face integrates the grille directly into the cover, and 4 mounting screws install the cover on the exterior wall outlet. Bulk pricing runs acrossΒ 6 quantity tiersΒ with savings up toΒ 30%, orders ofΒ 500+ unitsΒ qualify for custom production, and in-stock items ship the same day on orders placed byΒ 11AM ET.

Stainless Steel Protection at the Exterior Wall

Dryer vent covers cap the dryer exhaust duct where it exits the exterior wall, built fromΒ SS304 stainless steelΒ to hold up against direct weather exposure. Within theΒ Exterior LouversΒ range, the dryer vent cover is the style built specifically for exhaust ducts, separate from the gable and wall vents that ventilate an attic instead. A weatherproof rubber seal fits around the cover, blocking insects and moisture from entering the ventilation system and the wall opening behind it. The silver stainless finish resists corrosion without a painted coating.

Round Design and Simple Installation

The dryer vent cover uses a round face with the grille integrated directly into the cover, rather than a separate screen or insert. Four mounting screws install the cover on the exterior wall outlet, matched to the neck size ordered. The round shape and open grille face let exhaust air move out from the duct without the cover restricting the airflow. Confirm the duct's neck size before ordering, since the cover connects directly to that measurement.

Neck Sizing, Bulk and Custom Orders

Dryer vent covers are ordered by the round duct neck size, not a width-by-height opening the way a wall or ceiling register is. AirGrilles stocksΒ 4 neck sizes, 4, 5, 6, and 8 inches, matched to a standard dryer exhaust duct. For attic or exterior wall ventilation instead of a dryer exhaust,Β Aluminum Exterior VentsΒ cover that use case instead. Bulk pricing spansΒ 6 quantity tiers, from 1 unit to 100+, with savings up toΒ 30%Β at the higher tiers. Orders ofΒ 500+ unitsΒ qualify for custom production depending on size, finish, and lead time, and in-stock items ship the same day on orders placed byΒ 11AM ET.

Common Questions About Dryer Vent Covers

These answers cover the material, seal, sizing, and ordering questions that come up most on dryer vent covers.

What material is the dryer vent cover made from?

The dryer vent cover is built fromΒ SS304 stainless steel, a grade chosen for its resistance to corrosion in direct outdoor weather exposure. The finish ships inΒ silver, the natural stainless steel appearance rather than a painted color. No additional coating is needed for weather resistance.

Does the dryer vent cover keep out insects and moisture?

Yes, a weatherproof rubber seal fits around the cover to block insects and moisture from entering the ventilation system and the wall opening behind it. The seal sits between the cover and the exterior wall surface. Check the product listing for the seal's exact placement and fit before ordering.

How do I size a dryer vent cover?

Measure the round duct's diameter and match it to the closest neck size,Β 4, 5, 6, or 8 inches. The cover connects directly to that duct neck rather than a width-by-height opening. Confirm the duct diameter before ordering, since the cover will not seat on a mismatched size.

What is the difference between a dryer vent cover and a gable vent?

A dryer vent cover caps a dryer exhaust duct on the exterior wall, while anΒ Aluminum Exterior VentΒ ventilates an attic or wall cavity through a louvered face. The dryer cover is sized by the round duct neck, and the gable vent is sized by the wall opening. Choose based on whether the opening is a dryer exhaust or general attic and wall airflow.

How does the dryer vent cover install?

The cover installs on the exterior wall outlet withΒ 4 mounting screws, matched to the duct's neck size. No additional hardware is needed beyond the screws included with the cover. Confirm the wall surface can hold the screws securely before installing.

Is there a bulk discount on dryer vent covers?

Yes, bulk pricing applies automatically acrossΒ 6 quantity tiers, with savings up toΒ 30%Β at the 50+ tier. Orders ofΒ 500+ unitsΒ qualify for custom production depending on size, finish, and lead time. In-stock items ship the same day on orders placed byΒ 11AM ET.

Fit 5" exhaust perfectly

Fit 5" Jennair downcraft external exhaust perfectly. The buckles fit snuggly into the exhaust.There is no bug screen but one can cut a small piece of window screen to fit over the opening before sliding it into the wall exhaust.

Solid quality product but one significant concern

This is a solid quality stainless steel air dryer vent cover hood. It not only looks superior to the typical plastic covers, but also feels more robust. I’ve been searching for a higher quality vent cover, and this one comes close to what I had in mind.However, there is one major aspect that could be improved. I think the mesh openings are too small for a dryer vent, which might lead to lint buildup and clogging quickly. For reference, my current plastic cover with rectangular openings measuring about ½”x ¾” required occasional cleaning. If the mesh is removed, it will require less lint cleaning and improve the airflow. However, this could potentially invite bugs.Even though this round model has an excellent quality, I would get a different model with a flap cover and larger mesh openings, like the Handua 6" Neck Stainless Steel Square Exhaust Air Dryer Vent Cover.

Superior to the plastic junk that is out there. Well made, looks good.

As you can see in my pictures, my dryer vent is very low to the ground. The design of this cover allows me to rotate it some to side for better ventilation. This cover is made entirely out of aluminum and is super well made. It has turning vanes at the back and a mesh screen to keep critters out. It looks very upscale, installs tightly to the vent pipe and was exactly what I needed.

Good quality and will probably last forever

Very sturdy vent without any louvers that would eventually breakdown. My only concern about this is the fairly fine screen that is in the vent cover. I would recommend checking it from time to time, because if you have a lint problem, it's probably going to plug up. Of course, you can always remove it before installing if it's a concern. It also comes with a small arrow shaped piece of metal. Not sure what it's for.

Nice Looking for a Dryer Vent Cover

Pretty darned good looking for a dryer vent cover. Makes the laundry vent look a lot better!Easy to install.Very durable and the clips to set it in place are solid and work well.Everything needed is included; also the rubber seal.It works well, especially because it comes with a screen inside to catch any stray lint.
