I'm thinking it must be the code??? But I'm not certain. It could have been a worker who made an error or took a shortcut.
I was agreeing with you about listening to the wife when she says its taking to long for the clothes to dry. I was thinking yea right. Turns out in my case, I have selective hearing and almost or could have lost the house because of it.
My dryer line is metal and no longer than two feet long and there is a removable plastic cover on the outside to keep varmints out. Frank Deangelo would have the correct answer for you about the code.
My problem in Jersey was the pipe was too long and had two turns. I had to put a blower to advance the lint along and get it out of the house.
