DRYER LINT/EXHAUST CONCERNS

[ThePoetSuede]

I will contact the vendors soon but I was looking for some feed back to the following. I am interested in the ADC line of dryers. I have a space where the owner is concerned about dryer exhaust/lint. Has anyone come about a mat located in a store front where there is no side wall to allow the venting of exhaust/lint? And if so what would be the best way to "channel", "direct" the exhaust? And what about lint buildup?

It's quite common to have dryers exhaust through a roof as opposed to a side wall. It all depends on how far you have to go up to exhaust. Don't forget to allow adequate make-up air to "feed" the dryers. An experienced distributor should be able to help you with that. It can be very tricky if there are apartments/offices above the storefront and no available sidewall.

the installer will figure it out. You can have a huge vent that runs sidways and dump out the back of the building also, not going thru the roof
