Default Has anyone Tried to Recycle heat from Dryer vent?

I imagine putting some find of a filter at the end of the vent house would
do the trick, and direct the vent into the laundry room. Some one
mentioned that the added humidity in the room might actually make the
drying
process take longer (it need dry air). Although in my case might not be
a
problem because the room is very large (24x24). Anyone ever tried
this,
did it work good, any problems? Thanks


My bro-in-law does that. But we live in New Mexico where excessive
humidity is far from being a problem. It does add humidity to the room
but in this climate it's a blessing. Our average humidity is 30% with
days dropping to single digits.

The drying time doesn't seem to be a problem at all.
