This makes it even harder to detect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When enough of it is breathed in, CO can prevent your blood cells from carrying oxygen. CO can fundamentally damage your organs and kill you if you are exposed for long enough.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thankfully, <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/electric-dryer-produce-carbon-monoxide\/\">electric dryers don&rsquo;t produce CO<\/a> because they fully utilize electricity and not gas to create heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>However, this does not mean that venting an electric dryer inside your home is safe or desirable.<\/strong> Even <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/can-dryer-vent-under-deck\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"13859\">venting under an enclosed deck<\/a> is potentially harmful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hot, Moist Air Is a by-Product of All Dryers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While CO is not a risk in the exhaust of an electric dryer, hot, moist air surely is.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The most basic and noticeable part of hot, humid air being vented into your home is that it is uncomfortable. Moist air tends to feel like it is clinging to you and can make warm temperatures feel even warmer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This discomfort can be countered by using a dehumidifier and using fans or air conditioning but it could easily be avoided by venting your dryer exhaust outside. This is certainly preferable considering that running a dehumidifier, fan, or air-conditioning will cost you more money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moisture is not only uncomfortable but can lead to health problems. Excess moisture in your home can lead to mold and mildew, which can also have adverse health effects. Moisture can negatively affect water damage-prone aspects of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although these situations are quite a bit less dangerous than CO-poisoning, they can still impact health and cause damage to your home, as you will see in the following sections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Risks Linked With Venting Electric Dryers Indoors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Mold<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, with damp conditions comes a higher likelihood that mold will grow in your home.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold.jpg\" alt=\"mold at home\n\" class=\"wp-image-13961\" width=\"640\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-735x536.jpg 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-335x244.jpg 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-347x253.jpg 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-520x379.jpg 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-640x467.jpg 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold.jpg.webp\" alt=\"mold at home\n\" class=\"wp-image-13961 lazyload\" width=\"640\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-735x536.jpg.webp 735w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-335x244.jpg.webp 335w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-347x253.jpg.webp 347w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-520x379.jpg.webp 520w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-640x467.jpg.webp 640w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold-960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/mold.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only is mold rather ugly, especially when it grows on walls, but mold also is a common allergen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mold in your home will lower the air quality with its undesirable smell and spores, cause allergic reactions in those that are allergic, and cause asthma attacks in those with asthma.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are also toxic types of mold that can grow in your home and which can affect you even if you are not predisposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Structural Damage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As humidity rises in your home, materials sensitive to water, such as wood and paper, can suffer the effects.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wood flooring, wooden beams, wallpaper, and insulation would accumulate condensation and after a while, they would begin to rot, deteriorate, and warp, particularly if these items are of poor quality or have not been well maintained.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Deterioration is rather expensive, especially for wood flooring, which can be<a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/cost-fix-squeaky-floors\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"11394\"> quite expensive to repair or reinstall<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As insulation deteriorates the home would become even less air-tight than before.

The hot, moist air released by the dryer freely moves into the room. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These alternatives do not work for a variety of reasons and both <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/do-dryer-condenser-boxes-work\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"13052\">condenser boxes<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/indoor-dryer-vents-kits-code\/\">indoor dryer kits violate the IRC<\/a> for the same reasons that venting dryer exhaust inside does.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides their nonadherence to the IRC, condenser boxes also often have hose attachments that lead to leaks and are not great at holding all of the exhaust in the box. This leaking can cause similar problems to those laid out above.&nbsp;As mentioned earlier, <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/indoor-dryer-vent-kits-do-they-actually-work\/\">indoor dryer vent kits<\/a> don&rsquo;t even try to contain the exhaust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Can&rsquo;t Vent? Go Ventless<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the concern with your dryer exhaust is that the placement of your dryer is not conducive to venting outside, it is not a good idea to vent inside or use a condenser box.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, you should use a ventless dryer, which has manifold <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/ventless-dryer-pros-and-cons\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"11953\">advantages<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Common ventless dryer types include <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/heat-pump-dryers-pros-cons\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"12419\">heat pump<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/condenser-dryer-pros-cons\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"11808\">condenser dryers<\/a>. These both take in air from the surrounding area, heat the inside of the dryer, causing the water in the fabric to become a vapor. Then, this vapor is cooled so that the water condenses and the clothing is dry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main difference between a heat pump and a condenser dryer is that a heat pump dryer uses old water from previous loads to generate hot, humid air to vaporize the water in the fabric. A condenser dryer does not use this process and instead collects this water to be emptied later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides not having to vent your dryer, other advantages of having a ventless dryer include that they are energy-efficient, take up much less space, and require less maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disadvantages include their price, limited load capacity, and longer drying times.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These factors must be considered but if your primary concern is venting, a ventless dryer may be for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sources<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.poison.org\/articles\/carbon-monoxide#:~:text=When%20you%20breathe%20it%20in,Permanent%20brain%20damage%20can%20result.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.poison.org\/articles\/carbon-monoxide#:~:text=When%20you%20breathe%20it%20in,Permanent%20brain%20damage%20can%20result.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hunker.com\/12468308\/health-effects-of-a-dryer-vent-discharging-inside-of-a-house\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.hunker.com\/12468308\/health-effects-of-a-dryer-vent-discharging-inside-of-a-house<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/humidity-and-asthma#:~:text=Because%20humid%20air%20is%20so,problem%20if%20you%20have%20asthma.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/humidity-and-asthma#:~:text=Because%20humid%20air%20is%20so,problem%20if%20you%20have%20asthma.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kitcheninfinity.com\/building-code-foundation-requirements\/#:~:text=If%20you%20don't%20follow,to%20move%20into%20the%20house.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/kitcheninfinity.com\/building-code-foundation-requirements\/#:~:text=If%20you%20don&rsquo;t%20follow,to%20move%20into%20the%20house.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is quite easy to read that gas dryers produce carbon monoxide and then decide that gas dryer exhaust is dangerous but electric dryer exhaust is safe.
