laundry room

Jun 17, 2007 2 Replies

The apartment laundry room, (has one washer and one dryer) door is always kept locked for security reasons. There is a sort of smell in it now. Would putting a grid vent in the door help with getting some air circulation in the room? Patt


Um, yes. I have seen wooden doors have holes neatly drilled in the bottom third of a door to provide for air movement.

First of all, check for any leaks and repair those. Any vent will help. Consider installing a fan venting to the outside.
