Vented dryer

    Hi, I have no room in my kitchen for a tumble dryer and so was thinking of putting one into our spare bedroom (currently used for ironing etc anyway). Considering the cost difference between a vented and condenser dryer I was hoping I could get the vented type and just stick the hose out the window when I need to use it.

    Is this plausible? Doe they generate a lot of steam - if it was stuck in the alcove of the room would it destroy the walls/ceiling with damp?

    Thanks

    Yes it needs to be vented. Putting the hose out the window works as long as you actually do it and leave it out there for a while after the cycle is done. It is always a good idea to put the hose into a basin when you take it in as any condensed steam (water) could still be in the pipe.
