WHO WE ARE
In 2015 we quit our lives in the city to buy bare land in the country and build a timber frame home from scratch with our bare hands, debt-free, with no prior experience. It’s been a wild ride of ups, downs, highs, lows, rain and rainbows, but we haven’t lost sight of our goals and have gotten further in three years than we thought we’d get in ten. Join us as we build our house, develop our rural property, practice traditional skills such as gardening and food preservation and go to even greater heights (literally) of exploring the world through aviation as a new private pilot!

Yes, I was screaming at you until about 25 minutes in! You figured it out, though. RTFM! Read the code, then make your plans. I just moved into a house that was venting the dryer into the carport that had been enclosed for a garage... what a mess, lint everywhere and I had to use a dehumidifier to remove the moisture from the air. Bit the bullet, did a proper installation of 4" galvanized tin pipe and have never looked back! There is very little heat generated from the pipe, most of it goes right outside. Unistrut is complete overkill for tin pipe, you can use plumber's strapping.

Been following you guys for a while now, along with a few other channels that are building their own homes debt free .I am one of those people. We did just what you guys have done. Lived in a camper while building our homestead. What really gets me is how all these other people watching vids like to criticize others on how they choose to live their lives. There is nothing wrong with doing what you feel is right for you. Being pregnant and a baby on the way having a washer and dryer is going to instrumental in your daily routine. Not everything needs to be this off grid issue. I say live your best life and do what you need and don’t listen to any of the nah sayer. They are not the ones living there with you and dealing with it. Keep up the good work.

As a HVAC worker for a living, this is a hard no. This is not acceptable from the heat. Also, the static charge on PVC pipes from left over lint an hot air running through it would result in buildup. You explained it perfectly. Absolutely must be changed. You can insulate any duct pipe.

The "V" in DWV is for plumbing venting, not exhaust venting. Yes, it has been used in newer heating systems (90+%) but it is not listed for that use either. There is specifically designed duct work for those heating units. The only acceptable heating venting material where I live is galvanized steel. Properly installed it will not collect lint in a dryer system and can be taken apart to clean if it does build up.

You don't want the PVC pipe for any vent that might be subject to heat, fire etc. The reason is off gassing and toxic smoke. Also read about what the limits are for heat rise and vent length.

I'm a fan, but I can't take it! Run your drill on high speed and quit pulsing and rocking it! Keep it straight... Put the drill by the ceiling so if it spins it will hit the bottom of the floor and won't take your arm with it. It's nice that the snow sheds from the roof with just a few inches of snow.

Try inserting 4 inch galvanized into the 4 and a half pvc as a sleeve only where it goes through the wall. That way you don't have to patch things. 4 inch galvanized pipe is what you need to vent a dryer. There are also length and number of elbows allowed as well as verticle length.

Use inexpensive (relative to PVC) metal vent pipe and cover it with insulated cover that is commonly used for air conditioning/heating ducting purposes (HVAC Insulated-Flex Ducting Ventilation Duct Hose). That will comply with building regs and also keep inside the pie and out of your house. In any case, you will most likely have solved the issue one way or the other since we're weeks behind real life.

I read many and there are great comments. One is the use of trail cameras to catch things when they happen, and they work well in cold and dark situations. They are relatively inexpensive as well. Also for security and catching animals prowling around at any hour. You are doing a wonderful job with your home build. Do not allow negative comments to plague your mind.

In 2001 I worked on a job inside a metal building that was 300' wide and 900' long. At the peak of the roof it was almost 30' with over 10' side walls. In January it came almost a foot of snow, the weather stayed cold for about two weeks and then warmed up to just about freezing. The building was not heated although there were some area heaters being used in certain areas. During the afternoon the interior of the building must have heated to just above freezing and the entire roof's snow slid off all at one time. It was piled up about 3 feet high and five feet across the length of the building on both sides and that was packed down a lot. No one was entering or exiting at the time but if they would have been there is no doubt they would have been seriously injured. I was only there for one winter and we only had the one real heavy snow but I think of it anytime I am around a metal roofed building to this day. If you are at the right place it isn't like someone throwing a snow ball at you, it is serious business.

small thought here, During the hot summer months, dry the laundry outside, in the winter a little extra heat in the house is a nice thing! If you're not using the dryer as much in the summer you (a) save electrical cost as well as heat and (b) can more easily mitigate the heat with a fan or two.

Most inspectors are glad to help you so they don't have to make you change the work later. Sorry to see you had a set back, but its only a small one. One 4" PVC pipe is a small price in the total price of building a house. My wife always tells me did you read the information yet, you need to start job XXX next week and you need to make sure X and Y can be used.

You should be good to go, just use metal ducting. Check and see what they want you to use to fasten the sections together, some places are very strange in their requests.

Snow jacks or snow bars on the roof will prevent the avalanches (which can tear gutters off or damage property below). PVC is only good for around 140-F, the larger problem is the noxious smoke it emits if it catches fire. It's recommend that you use solid aluminum ductwork for the dryer venting, make sure you point the crimped ends of the fittings towards the outside (opposite of how a chimney pipe is assembled). You're going to be screwed on the heat-gain/heat-loss on that dryer anyway since you have to admit outside air back into the building to replace what it pumps out. Also the amount of heat transferred into the living space from that short run of ductwork will be quite minimal (you'll likely appreciate what little you're going to get from it during the winter months). - Side note, do you need to be concerned about the combustibility of the SIP insulation where the dryer vent passes through (and the discharge of any other heat generating/conveying appliance - i.e. range hood)?

FYI, in woodworking dust removal systems we cut down on static in PVC pipe by running a copper grounding wire inside the pipe. The wire is then grounded to the house ground.

PVC is for venting in plumbing and some new type high efficiency and vary low exhaust temp not for dryer venting use steal vent pipe and if you don’t want to use screws or pop rivet us heavy duty house clamps

Hey Jessie, I do this stuff for a living. Next time drill a small pilot hole from the inside all the way through then drill from both sides that way you don't make a mess by blowing out the other side. This is for both wood and cement. Just a bit of a trick and it saves buying an extension.

Home Depot usually sells 4" dryer duct in flat sheets of aluminum or galvanized steel. The flat sheets are pre-bent to form a seam when you curl it into the round tubular shape. Your Unistrut stuff will work fine. DWV is for plumbing only.

I use PVC for ducting my wood shop dust collection system and resolved the static buildup by wrapping the pipe with bare braided wire which was grounded to the dust collector. This has been working fine for several years without static buildup. I used one wrap of wire every 2 feet.

LOL Poor Bug A Boo. Don't blame him for not wanting to go out in that! He's not dumb! Our Ollie loves it outside but I bet he wouldn't want to go out in that either. We don't get much of that stuff here in S. Ms.

If we had that much snow here in the UK, we would think the end has come, more than 1/2” everything stops. At Least in the south. Agree with others, would have gone for a heat pump dryer, just a drain and v cheap to run.
