The project this weekend was a replacement of the vent for the dryer that runs up the wall, into the attic, and 20ish feet to the side of the house. A week or so ago I noticed the sound of slushing water in a portion while in the attic. I lifted the pipe to determine if it was the source of the sound, I felt and heard a rush of water exit the vent to the outside and the rest to flow up the pipe toward the dryer. Apparently (as I theorize now), my lifting of the pipe caused a crack in the pipe. A few days later while doing all-day laundry, I notice a wet spot forming on the ceiling in the kitchen. There wasn't much water that leaked, but with the cold days of winter + tons of laundry = oceans of condensation undoubtedly collecting in the pipe.

It goes without saying that the difference in my dryer performance is extreme. Drying time has been cut from a couple of hours down to around 50 minutes on the loads I've done so far. I haven't done any heavy duty loads like towels or jeans yet. This change in drying time has completely messed with my laundry routine; the time I start a load of laundry in the washer to synchronize with the conclusion of a load in the dryer is fucked.

I'm sorry, I can't be the only person that is anal about that...am I?
