I'm curious to hear if anyone actually implemented this as I've been considering it for our electric dryer. A condensing dryer sounds nice, but currently not an option on the budget side.
While I understand that other parts of the country want moisture in the winter, here in the PNW we don't, or at least the house I'm in doesn't. I've got condensation issues with the AL framed windows (to be replaced at some point) and am happy to get any and all extra moisture out of the interior envelope as possible.
Because of the ease of assembly I was also toying with this same idea for a simple HVR system for bathroom venting. I have plenty of room in a long crawl-space and a foundation drain (that now works after digging up the yard) there to dump condensation. I know efficiency would be low, but so would project costs.
