I enlarged the kids bath room and moved my washer and dryer in the room. Problem is they are on a interior wall now. So I cut a hole in the floor and routed the dryer vent out this hole. This is right next to where I use to have a gas central heat/ac unit. Since I switched over to a heat pump the old exhaust stack for the gas unit is no longer used.
Jump to today....... I was going to remove the old heater vent and repair the roof but got to thinking...... Could I....Should I.... have used this old vent through the roof for my dryer.
Pros... It would cut my dryer vent tube length in more than half. It would get my vent tube from under house where it is always damp; never wet but damp/humid because the sun never hits this area. Remember we get over 60 inches of rain a year every year.
Cons... The tube would now run straight UP for several feet. This is a stacked unit and the dryer is on top so it may be 5 or 6 ft from the dryer to the roof line. The dryer would vent on my shingle roof maybe causing lint to dirty the shingles.
