Is aluminum tape safe to fix a dryer exhaust hose and duct?

your smelling the adhesive on the tape it's normal and aluminum tape is better than any other for the job


Yes its ok.


Yea thats comely, aluminum tape is made for dryers and vents rather than duct tape which is a multipurpose tape and not good with stimulation.

How far can I run my dryer exhaust vent?

I would like to run pvc tootle for an exhaust for my dryer , the distance is approximatly 12 feet is this ok?


You should look into what the manufacturer suggests. I don't think pvc would meet code requirements. Check with your municipality, mechanical inspector.

Is there a way to limit the moisture coming from our dryer exhaust?

Our dryer exhaust leads to the garage and the moisture is crushing. I am hoping that someone has an idea.


Try putting your unsoiled wet clothes through an extra spin cycle or two in the washer.
This will remove more water from the clothes before you put them in the dryer.
Less water = Less moisture.
