Get yourself a fan booster for the dryer vent. If you can’t install it pay a handy man. Here is one:

There are many available online. You clothes will dry a lot faster. Better yet, get a clothes line if your climate allows for it this time of year. You will save over $150 per month on your electric bill.

Thanks for the suggestions, especially the fan booster. In a normal year here, this time of year on a clothesline freeze-drying would be the result. (8^D)

The booster fan is an interesting idea. You might want to change or rephrase your savings estimate though. Our electricity bill averages about $70 per month. I'd love to save $150. :)

That's amazing. I will break even. My entire electric heating bill in Washington State in December was $150. Maybe put two blowers in series and they will have to pay me money /sarc.
