hi guys. So my current setup for the dryer venting is a crappy flex tube behind the machine and it goes to a metal flange or elbow through the wall, then as it passes directly through the wall into the garage (see pic below), after elbow it's a 4.5 ft piece of flex tube in a box to house the flex duct as it goes to the outside wall vent. I learned on here, about the magVent set up but I'm wondering if that wall box is still required by code to house the new replacement metal duct that I'm going to install?? Should I just leave the box there and just cut out the bottom and do all my work from below? Not sure if some sort of firewall is required by code I don't wanna deal with it later should we sell the place. Thx
