1. Use It for Watering Plants

Dryer water, also known as condensed water from your dryer’s vent, is often clean and safe for watering plants (as long as you’re not using toxic dryer sheets). Just be sure the water has cooled down before using it on your plants.

2. Utilize It for Cleaning

You can use dryer water for cleaning tasks like mopping the floor or wiping down surfaces. It’s especially useful for light cleaning jobs, since it’s generally soft water that won’t leave streaks.

3. Install a Water Recovery System
