holey dryer exhaust, batman


When renovating a home, sometimes one must make a four inch wide hole clean through an exterior wall for the purpose of venting one's dryer. This is just the way it is. Sooner or later, the time comes when cutting that hole just cannot be put off any longer.  You've got to hoist that monstrous ladder, crawl to the top rung and awkwardly handle sharp power tools at dangerous altitudes. But don't worry because if you measure and cut correctly, and if you're a little bit lucky, you just might be able to fit a dryer vent through that hole which can actually function to divert from your home the exhausted hot air that will soon be drying your recently laundered socks and undergarments. 

Here's a peek at the soon-to-be laundry nook in our soon-to-be family bathroom...


Things are looking right nice up there, folks! 
More on that bathroom very soon.

After attempting to install a less expensive aluminum dryer vent that fell apart several times, we returned to our local hardware retailer to exchange it for the more sleek, pricey, structurally sound model. As difficult as this decision was we were ultimately quite satisfied with the results. Sometimes, if you want a project done right, you got to spend them dollars. Amiright?

Ta-da!


Finally, as promised...

Batman.


So hawt.
