If you do a search, of EcoRenovator, you will find a huge discussion regarding this very subject.

As for myself, I think that clothes dryers are an abomination... in that they beat our clothes to death and shorten their useful life (look in the lint filter for the evidence) and they use a huge amount of energy.

I'd say that the best way to recover the lost heat is to carry the clothes dryer to the dump and leave it there.

Then find a way to dry clothes that does not require a dryer.
