My clothes dryer vent goes up into the attic and then travels about 25 feet before exiting the house. The attic is vented to the outside, so sees roughly the same temperatures as the outisde temperature. In the winter we go as low as maybe 5 below zero F. I've read on the net that the vent should be insulated to prevent condensation in the tube. However, the company hat installed it last year did not insulate it and didn't think it was necessary.
Who should I believe? And if it should have been insulated, what kind of insulation is recommended?
