Make sure the total vent length (from dryer to outdoors, accounting for all bends - see the link below) does not exceed the manufacturer's suggested maximum length for the dryer model you have. In fact, keeping it *far* short would be best.

What sort of vent pipe should I use? - 4" flexible aluminum?
Do not use that stuff inside or outside. You should go out of your way to only use rigid metal ducting.
