I used dryer tube for my CCR arches.  I think it looks better....here is a video someone took, the arches are on the left.   

 




They do look nice, makes it look bulkier. Hows the material holding up in the cold? Or is it not that cold yet by you?

Okay, looking on HomeDepot website and all I see is the aluminum dryer vent tubing which could not be seen thru. Am I missing something. Any direction to the sku or item name would be appreciated.

This is what I used, it is the white dryer vent hose. I highly recomend it.

UL 2158Awhich came out in 2006 says all dryer venting material must be rated for 430 degrees Fahrenheit.

Look for flexible vent material instead of dryer vent.

I was going to cover my four arches with dryer venting but I couldn't fit the venting over the lights. As you can see from the photo I'm just using LED minis tightly wrapped around a 3/4 inch PVC. All the lights kept catching and poking through the plastic venting material.:D
