Is the hot air released from your clothes dryer dangerous?
I live in the midwest United States where it is very cold in the winter. I was just wondering why we release the hot air from the clothes dryer through a vent to the outside. Couldn't this heat be used to help warm the house...and the fabric softner could be a room deorderizer/air freshner. Or is the air released by the dryer dangerous or hazardous?
The air released by the dryer is not dangerous, it is very very humid though and in tight house can leade to tons of condensation all over glass surfaces.
There are things that you can buy at hardware stores that allow you to turn the air inside during the winter (with another filter) or turn it outside during the summer. I bought one for $5, it heats the basement well but is very humid and all of the windows are very dewy. The whole house then smells like fresh laundry so if you like that smell, go for it.
