Hello, I live in a 24 unit converted to condo building where the sponsor did a dodgey job when installing our washer and dryers in the ’80′s. Half the units have gas and half have electric. NONE OF THEM ARE VENTED. Does anyone know the legal code for gas and electric? Right now, some units with electric have vent buckets, but I don’t think that is enough. Obviously, gas is completely illegal, but we aren’t sure who to fix the situation. WIll we have to put vents out into the fresh air on the roof? How are the self venting dryers? Are they up to code and will not pose a health risk or fire? Any help or websites would be greatly appreciated.
