I currently have a wall-mounted vented dryer that has stopped working and needs to be replaced. I live in a rainy city where it rains more than 150 days a year.

1. Would you recommend replacing it with another vented dryer or switching to a ventless condenser/heat-pump dryer? Any specific 24-inch models you would recommend for a condo setup?
2. Is there a meaningful energy-cost saving with a ventless dryer especially a heat-pump model compared with a conventional vented electric dryer?

Would appreciate hearing from anyone who has made a similar switch.

Hi everyone,

I need to replace my wall-mounted GE dryer (PCKS443EB2WW) above my GE washer (GFW148SSM0WW) after a technician confirmed the dryer needs replacement.

I live in a rainy city, where we get rain on roughly 155 days a year, so humidity is one of my concerns.

Would you recommend another vented dryer or switching to ventless?

If ventless, would you choose a condenser or heat-pump dryer? Have you experienced increased humidity, condensation, mold concerns, or longer drying times?

Any 24-inch models you would recommend for my setup?

Thanks!

Hello, May I know where should I dispose used bulbs, light fixtures and glass bowls in Vancouver specifically around West End or North Vancouver? My building doesn’t allow us to dispose these items in the building’s trash boxes so I would really appreciate any recommendations. Thanks!

My kid starts kindergarten in September and we’re likely not getting a spot in after-school care. We need someone to handle school pickup and supervision at home from ~3:00–6:00 PM, Monday–Friday.
