How Do You Install A Dryer Vent Through The Roof?
Installing a dryer vent through the roof is easier than many people think. While it is tricky and requires several unique tools, the process is simple. Venting a dryer through the roof is a great solution to houses and buildings that cannot be vented in any other manner.
