If I remember correctly? his dryer vent vents up through the roof, so it would about 8 feet? PLus Installed screen wire blocking any debris passing through dryer lint strainer/catcher. So with the screen and lint catcher poor at catching lint it will IMO plug up quicker than 6" outside trap door vent. IMO the roof vent should have trap door and not screen to block what ever wants to crawl in?
