Contractor installed this convoluted p-trap + elbow for the washer, and I’m not sure if it’s up to code. Can you confirm and more importantly explain why or why not it’s compliant?

    What plastic duct? It’s a standard foil one, but had a break in a couple of spots and since we’re replacing it by a new one next week, we have a piece of tape on it… Am i referring to the wrong thing?

      That foil thing is covered in plastic. It can ignite if any of your dryer lint burns. Get rigid metal.
