Question From A Non-Home Owner

[plumtreeblossom]

Dryers pump their hot air outside of the house. So my question would be: during the winter months (in areas where winter is cold), why not have that warm air released inside the house instead, providing an additional source of both heat and humidity for that rooms and rooms near it?

What don't I know?

We have an attachment to the dryer, where in the summer you flip a lid and the hot hair goes out, and in the winter it goes into the house.

So, it is possible, you just have to get the right dryer hose :)

That makes sense to me. As long as the lint is filtered, I see no reason to waste good hot air!
