I'd like to be able to switch my clothes dryer to venting into the
room to conserve heat.   It needs to be switchable when the weather is
warm, but I doubt that a dryer would put more water into the house
than clothing dried on racks, and they always dry fast enough to show
that they haven't raised the humidity much.
