Where do the dryer vents lead? Is that heat captured and used?
- walrus01 4y agoUnlikely, dryer output is very humid, unless you have a tropical greenhouse next door.
- irdc 4y agoOn the other hand, letting all that water condense onto a cold surface should be easy.
- AdamN 4y agoI have a dryer in my apt (miele) and it has no externally routed vent. Heat/humidity is ejected to the sewer line. Aside from the lower energy consumption, this seems useful for an Antarctic base for heat re-use.
- MichaelZuo 4y agoAntarctic air is very dry, so I doubt the humidity would ever rise to dangerous levels in a well ventilated room, even if the dryers were running 16 hours a day.
