No offense, but you really shouldn't be trying to make "educated"
guesses, Stretch. Most of your response is pretty far off the
mark but not all.

That's odd; not here in NY. Didn't in Chgo when I lived there.
Doesn't in Buffalo, NY. How/why would it violate code?

: Second if it is a gas dryer there are gas fumes going into the
house.
True, maybe ... but most gas dryers I know of and it's been a
long, long time since I've seen one, vent the gases up the
chimney and still shoot the clothing heat out the dryer vent
hose.
I seriously doubt any dryer dries the clothies in the
combusted air of the gas flames. They use a heat exchanger,
same's a furnace, the few that are around. That'd sure make the
clothes smell great, wouldn' t it?

Probably not since he's trying to distribute this around the
home. A dryer's also a low duty-cycle appliance - and just the
blower on most dryers would push the air well past any doorway -
they generate quite a breeze.

Not necessarily, not even most likely, although I'd suggest one
of the units made for that purpose instead of homemaking one, if
it can be afforded.

Same here; and quite successfully at that. I DO admit to a very
fine dust though, which settles in a white sort of mist in the
general area of the dryer so it does generate some dust. Nothing
of any consequence though if you normally clean your home.

Seems like a good idea, but it is not.

Seems like a good idea, and it CAN be a good idea. We use it
whenever the temps go down near zero or below (farenheit).
