Use Your Outdoor Stove As Clothes Dryer

Last year we received this question :  "I'm looking for a basic clothes dryer hook up drawing/kit.  If you don't have one, do you know of anyone."

 

At that time we could only say "What a great idea."  We had no knowledge of any kits or practical applications to create one.  Well, today I came across a potential solution for the problem and I wanted to spread the news.   Too bad there aren't more details, but this web page throws out some hint of how this could be done.

Here's another way to help you take full advantage of your hot water heating system. By taking an AH60 Paukner Air Handler and adding these options, you can use your hot water heating system to dry your clothes. Options available include a 8" round cap, timer and a filter grill.

Parts needed to connect to dryer will vary depending on dryer model and installation. Timer wiring is 24 volts. Filter Grill can be mounted on the front, right or left side, or bottom. Filter Grill cannot be mounted on the back of cabinet.

Hi,
The company that originally did this story isn't promoting their dryer anymore as it didn't turn out to be efficient enough.  We also built one, and found that it took hours to dry the clothes.  The story of how Dale retrofit our dryer is also on this blog, maybe it'll help you.  The idea has merit but still needs work.
This is all the information on the blog here about it.  Some pictures and more part lists.
