Dundas Jafine TDIDVKZW Indoor Dryer Vent Kit with 4" x 5' Duct

I ordered this dryer vent because of the extreme cold we have been experiencing this winter. I wanted to see if the added heat and humidity would help our home. I have an electric dryer and have an existing hose attached. I used this hose and combined it with my existing hose and set up was a cinch. I did not screw it to the wall but bring it out into the room when it is on to enjoy the heat and humidity. I took the advice of another review to add the essential oil and wow is it ever wonderful. I am really happy with how easy it is to use and the functionality. My dryer does not let a lot of lint through and the water on the bottom will catch anything it does make. I definitely recommend if you are looking to add warmth and humidity in the winter. The hose is less than 5 feet and is about 4.3 feet attached and fully extended.

Does it job.

Great product just wish it was longer so I could actually attach it to the wall above the dryer.

After reading some of the reviews I figured I would take the time to say a few things.... First off... The reason dryer moisture is vented outside the house is because the designers knew too much moisture in the house can cause mold and health issues. That being said I can only recommend this product as winter use only when the humidity is low to start with. Here is a few thoughts. 1. As others has mentioned this is not really a filter per say. It's simply a small bucket that has water on the bottom of the unit. You add in the water yourself. The thoughts are that the lint will hit the water and get suspended and out will come semi clean hot air from the drier. I would caution that the moisture from the clothes will be dispelled into the room in a good amount. You can solve this issue by turning on your furnace fan to recirculate the air around the house if you have a vent in your laundry room. Or... Just get a small clip on fan and push the moist air out of the room. I use the furnace fan option and have no issues. 2. It will not catch all the lint. You will have to dust a bit more in that room. My purpose for this small unit is to add moisture in the house in the winter as it gets really dry down where I live. Additionally if you stop to think about it. All the air you are blowing outside the house is also leaking into the house in the same amount. Go outside and feel how hard the air comes out of the vent. That same amount of air has to be pulled into the house so you are actually sucking out the heat you paid to make in the colder months and raising your bills. In winter we have a heat pump that struggles in the winter to heat the house. I decided to plug the outside hole from Nov to Feb and use that heat from the dryer I paid for to help warm the house instead of waste it outside. You have to find the balance with this product. We noticed some laundry soaps when vented in the house caused us to get head aches. Obviously you need to be aware of this. We bought a more natural soap and the issue went away. You figure it cant be too bad because you are putting the clothes on your body but you really need to be aware of what you are doing. All in all after a bit of trial and error we have a nice balance of adding moisture to the house as well as stopping heat loss. Plus its nice to know the house is getting the benefit of the dryer heating the house in winter a bit. One might ask. Am I that cheap I am worried about dryer vent heat? Overall no. What I have done over the ten years I have lived in this house is look around at things I can do better. As an example.. Install a clothes line in your basement and hang jeans and things you really don't need to dry. Turn down the hot water heater to the lowest setting that you can tolerate showering. No reason to store extra heat your not using. Radiant barrier in the attic. Deflects heat back into the roof not your attic. Solar powered attic fan. Works like a charm and the sun powers it. House is all LED light bulbs. Amazing difference in the power bill if you change them all. ( Save your old bulbs you take out and take them with when you move. LED bulbs last 10 years or more supposedly ) Install on off electric eyes on out door lights. Now we don't have to forget to turn off security lights in the daytime. All these things together have chopped over $30 to $40 off my bill and I always have the lowest electric bill of my neighbors. That's over $400.00 bucks a year I can spend on buying other things on amazon. :) Anyhow you will have to be the judge on this product. The price is fine. It is a bit hard to snap the two parts of the bucket together at first but I think as time goes on it will be easier. Good luck.

The quality of the product and size work really well with my dryer

Best thing ever. I was REALLY worried about getting and using this - I read some horror stories on here about lint going everywhere. I've used this for a few weeks now and have done at least 5 loads of laundry in a row without any lint getting anywhere except in the little water in the plastic cup, just like it is supposed to. There is no lint in the closet at all (where my laundry is). Also I was afraid it was going to be really hot - even though I keep the door to the closet open, I haven't noticed it making my place any hotter. I feel the heat when I walk by, but that's it. And I guess I could shut the door but I don't bother. It's July here in Mass. so it's hot but the dryer doesn't seem to make a difference. I even had it going with my windows closed and my window AC units going and it was totally fine. Also the dryer dries clothes really fast. Faster than a regular dryer - and my dryer is tiny so I think there may be some credence to the idea that this device makes the dryer more efficient, but who knows. This thing cost me less than $20 - a lot cheaper than paying someone to install the venting needed to vent the dryer outside. I would highly recommend this to anyone. I think the guy who was complaining about the lint must not have put water in the bucket. I can't think of any other reason why he would have tons of lint and I don't have any in a confined space...

My husband and I own a 3000 Sq ft house that is 4 off centered stories, so basically two stories on one side and 2 on the other, but none of them are level. Odd duckling house (but the view is amazing) because of its oddness it is expensive to keep warm. $350 bills during the winter if we just use our heat, $250 if we try to conserve energy and freeze, $200 if we have a fire going non stop and use our space heaters in the rooms we are in, so really if we find a way to help heat our house we will try it. Anyways, I actually came across this item for a whole different reason, we have had a fire burning non stop just about the past few weeks and my husband went to use the humidifier and it didn't work so I did a search for options to help moisten the air and on a blog I found a similar item recommended and it took me back to the days we lived in an apartment. We had a dryer hooked up in our storage closet but it didn't actually have an outlet for the dryer we just used it anyway and it was always warm and moist so I figured hey, let's try this and so the same thing in the house. My husband said it took o ly a few min to put together and he actually mounted it to the wall. It is working great and I am happy we spent the $10 try it. I think if that's why your interested in getting one then it's worth trying.
