Abstract
A housing as part of a clothes dryer's gaseous fluid exhaust system containing components for maintaining an open restriction-free airflow channel for maintaining the dryer's efficiency and sized to fit within a typical wall cavity of a building. A removable airflow filter for filtering and removing excess clothes lint, preventing entry of lint particulate into the upper exhaust vent pipe that may block exhaust airflow or blend with down falling condensate, which is generated from a clothes dryer's warm moist exhaust airflow. A diverter constructed to direct the exhaust airflow to a primary exterior location or to a secondary interior location. A condensate drain to separate falling condensate from exhaust airflow and dispose the condensate into an exclusive disposal system. The elements of this invention combine to secure the efficiency, longer life and safety of a clothes dryer and its exhaust system by removing lint particulate, separating exhaust airflow from falling condensate produced by a clothes dryer into the clothes dryer exhaust system.
