bringing dryer to main floor?
Due to old age and arthritis I want to bring my washer and dryer from the basement to the main floor.. Hooking up the washer won't be a prob. My question is - can I vent my dryer into the basement or do I have to vent it outdoors. I'd have to put in about 15 feet of vent pipe along the ceiling which would look like crap because the basement is finished. Any suggestions would be appreciated. The vent would go straight down into the furnise room.
I want to put it against an interior wall and just have the vent into the basement

Lifting the dryer to the main floor , out of the basement, usually will allow for it to be vented directly outside through the wall.
If you are not putting it against a wall that leads to the exterior, like a closet in the center of the floor you're bringing it, then going back to the basement may be the only option; but the longer the vent hose, the more dangerous it is because of the lint buildup.
