Venting a Dryer

I just realized that the dryer in my brownstone is not venting to the outside (there is no hose attached to the vent on the back of the dryer). Recognizing this is a fire hazard, I need to do something asap; either have a professional come look at if/how venting to the outside can be done or get a self-venting machine. Venting to the outside might be difficult given the location of the machines (it would be easiest to vent upwards, which is a no-no, versus sideways or down). I would also imagine an all-in-one self-venting machine isn’t as effective as having a separate washer/dryer. Of course the third, most environmentally option, would be to hang everything to dry.
Any suggestions? Can anyone recommend a professional individual/company to have a look?
brg- you WASH your cashmere? *horrified*
If you do have a gas dryer are you going to post another forum thread?
I think for the photo you should use the notorious photo that the what always used with the smoke bubble and photoshop a dryer next to it and maybe next to that have a photo of you hanging your clothes up to dry on a clothes line.
I’m just being silly, sorry.
btw – welcome back….and you missed another QOTD from me!
🙂
It’s all good. I got the answer I needed early on. Plus, anyone who isn’t sure if they have a gas or electric dryer deserves to have his/her thread hijacked. (and yes, it is sad that 2 out of 6 forum threads were moved to the main page and mine wasn’t one of them!)
^^^Oooops, so sorry, Biff. I didn’t mean to veer off topic.
You have a serious venting issue that needs to be addressed.
You just like hijacking MY QOTD thread!!
I’ve never hijacked a Forum post before. It was fun.
Okay DIBS, your song post was not appropriate. It had nothing to do with laundry!
Let’s not spoil this thread for the OP, which by the way seems to have washed his hands of us.
I’m just venting right now!
I’m gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I’m gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
I’m gonna wash that man right outa my hair,
And send him on his way.
I’m gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
I’m gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
I’m gonna wave that man right outa my arms,
And send him on his way.
Don’t try to patch it up
Tear it up, tear it up!
Wash him out, dry him out,
Push him out, fly him out,
Cancel him and let him go!
Yea, sister!

It’s a pain. Truthfully, I only do it for a few white button down blouses and my summer Tee’s that I have. Hubby’s undershirts, I could care less, We just get a new pack. I’m going to try bxgrl’s method.
Should we talk about washing Cashmere, now?
