EDIT: I've attached a rough map of the situation. The laundry room is the little room in the middle. The red dot is where the dryer vents into the garage.
My house is weird. Built mid-1970s. Upper Midwest.
One of the weird/annoying things about my house is the fact that the clothes dryer vent opens up into the house's attached garage rather than venting outside. This is an electric dryer, so the vent is just hot wet air -- nothing like CO or anything.
Ideally, I'd like the dryer to vent to the outside and not turn my garage into a stagnant humid swamp every time I dry clothes (most days, actually, because I have many children). But the laundry room isn't situated in a way that makes outside venting easy. It's on the main level, right in the middle of the floorplan. No basement access, so I can't add ductwork through the floor. No usable ceiling access either.
What options do I have to make this mess annoying? Add venting to the garage somehow?
Venting into the garage is going to lead to a very bad time (mold, lint, ect). Honestly, it may be cheaper to just go with a heat pump based dryer. They are far more energy efficient, areeasier onyour clothes, and don't need a vent at all. Now it's not all sunshine and roses, they are more expensive than traditional models, take longer to dry, the collected water needs dumped out afterwards, and don't heat your clothes up (so no hot towels or wrinkle releasing). That said, I think it would be the best compromise for your situation.
