Do you guys not vent your air externally?

Do you just vent the wet air back into the home?

If not you should get your dryer vent cleaned, your lint trap (which we have in ours also … ) is a first stage filter and does not catch everything.

Hope this helps you not burn your house down!

Neither. The dryer either collects the water or it is connected to the sewage and dumps the collected water.

I had a dryer for a while that vented into the room. It didn't just spew damp air though. There was a condenser and collector tank for water that had to be emptied between runs.

My dryer is connected to the water drainage pipe. Just like the washing machine. 1
