Inovate db-3d Dryer Box 3.5 Inches Deep Recessed

Product Description

The INOVATE db-3d is a recessed dryer box designed to move the dryer vent connection into the wall cavity, allowing a dryer to sit flush against the wall without crimping the exhaust duct. At 3.5 inches deep with a downward-exit configuration, the unit provides clearance for standard flexible or semi-rigid 4-inch dryer duct connections. It is typically installed by plumbers, general contractors, or experienced installers during new construction or renovation work where appliance placement and duct integrity are both priorities.

The db-3d is suited for residential laundry installations where wall depth allows a recessed box and where the dryer must be positioned close to the finished wall surface. The downward-exit orientation directs the duct run toward the floor, which is a common routing path in installations where the vent exits through a crawlspace or floor assembly. This configuration helps reduce sharp bends in the duct run and supports more efficient airflow compared to a surface-mounted elbow connection.

Key Features

• Recessed design keeps dryer duct connection inside the wall cavity for a flush appliance fit
• 3.5 inches deep construction fits standard stud-bay wall assemblies
• Downward-exit orientation reduces duct bends for improved airflow
• Designed for use with standard 4-inch dryer exhaust ducting
• Applicable in new construction and retrofit laundry room installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style recessed dryer box accessory for residential laundry applications requiring a wall-mounted duct connection point with a downward-exit configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified contractor or tradesperson familiar with residential duct routing and applicable building codes. The dryer and any associated electrical or gas supply must be fully disconnected before cutting into the wall cavity. Follow local building codes and manufacturer guidelines for dryer exhaust duct material, minimum duct diameter, and maximum allowable duct length. Do not use vinyl or foil accordion duct inside the wall cavity where prohibited by code.
