Hi everyone. In the process of planning some internal alterations. We're creating a downstairs WC and would like to make a utility space for washer and tumble dryer. Our only problem is getting them on an external wall for drains/ tumble vent. Drains I think I can deal with via a Saniflo that we're planning for the WC, but wonder about vent for tumble dryer. Don't want a condensing dryer but am happy to take a flexi vent pipe up the wall and across to the outside wall and box it in to make it look pretty. Is this a sensible thing to do, and is the run of 2-3 metres possible? I guess it will run vertically up to the ceiling (about 1.5 metres or so), then across horizontally for another 1.5 approx to outside wall.
Maximum length of tumble dryer vent hose?

How long is the flexy hose when stretched out? Use that as a guide, 10 ft or so should be OK IMHO. But dont forget to attach a grille across the end of the pipe an you will have rodents in there like a shot... They love warm dark places.
