Default Storing my Dyna....

I have a 2 car enclosed garage, but my clothes dryer vents into the garage. Yesterday, after doing laundry I went to get my bike out for a ride and there was alot of water condensation on my bike.

Is this going to cause problems??

Yes. The condensation can cause rust, BAAD. Another no no is pool chlorine. I ruined a good Volvo with a stash of pool tablets in my garage.
Besides, it is dangerous to vent a dryer into an enclosed area. The lint dust covers everything and after it dries out it can be ignited easily. Run a pipe outside.

Definately vent it outside. I've ruined a lot of tools that way. Had one of those 2-way vents that you could vent inside for heat. I read a post somewhere that stored lawn fertilizer will also cause rust. Dont know if its true but I removed mine from the garage and stored in the shed.

Well I've gotta problem then....the way my floorplan is I can't vent it outside. I've gotta couple of windows I could leave open a little.

I could go outside the wall, up to the attic, then to the outside under the soffit. CRAP.....it's gonna be a bugger doin that.


Anybody got any suggestions????

If you absolutely can not duct outside, they make indoor vent kits. You will need to replace the water in it fairly often, so it might be more hassle then its worth.

You can vent out through the roof if your garage is one story. There is a vent cover made for roof applications.
