re-routing a dryer vent
My builder vented my dryer (gas) into my garage. I suppose this was
within code but this seems like a really bad idea. My garage is always too hot and humid despite my efforts to open the garage doors and/or windows while the dryer is running. Also, the lint is the pain in the ___ - making the garage constantly dusty. I'd like to re-rout the vent outside. Any suggestions on an easy way to do this? The current vent location is such that I would need to go around a door before directing the vent to the back of the house. Due to the thickness of dryer vent pipe, it seems that I wouldn't want to run this within the walls, right? I guess I would have to run the vent exposed in the garage? Any help is appreciated. RD |
