is it vented to avoid mold build up

There is no venting. Has never been an issue for me. My toothbrush is usually never more than damp when I place within the device to be sanitized.

Yes. There is still lint, however most of it blows straight down. It doesn't seem to be as bad as a regular vent, but there is still lint.

No mold problems yet, but I've only had this for a few months. We leave it on all the time. If it were to get mold I'd put it in the dishwasher.

First, mold or mildew may have grown on the condenser coil inside the AC unit if there is a problem with moisture or drainage. Whatever the source, when the air flows through the vents, it spreads mold spores throughout your home, which is unhealthy and can cause intense allergic reactions. In cases like this, the condenser coil can be cleaned, drainage lines can be inspected, drain pans can be emptied.

Hello, Sorry to hear about that misguided person. To answer your question. There is not a vent, but I like that because it keeps the smoke in the grill to give the meat a more smoky flavor. Hope this info helps.

No. As long as you don't enclose it. Only the ones meant for indoor use need to be vented.

It does have a vent in the lid. And we've used ours about a dozen times and no problems so far.

We had it properly sealed - it is mounted so that there is only tile between it and the wall - I am sure regular cleaning with a good bathroom cleaner will prevent mold - I am not to worried about it

Very hard to say, but presumably yes - it's certainly better than NOT having it. More importantly though isn't temperature, it's the fact that the vent helps with wind - it's not a sail in the wind with the vent, since air can travel through it. That fact has been very helpful with my setup.

* Vent should be rotated to "closed" for use in drier climates to help prevent goods from going stale. * Vent should be rotated to "open" for use in more humid climates to help prevent goods from molding. Items with a crisper crust, such as sourdough or artisan breads, should be kept with the vent open to preserve the crust. Freshly baked goods should also be kept with the vent open to allow steam and moisture to escape to minimize condensation.

I would not advise it. Anytime you vent into a possible closed space such as an attic, you risk the chance of condensation and mold issues. Although ugly, if you purchase so extra flex hose, you can run it into another room for proper venting.

I grow in a grow tent that is located in my basement and vent outside the tent but inside my basement. No need to vent to the outside at all-venting outside your grow room/tent will be just fine. This unit will control any odor without worry. Hope this helps!

It is a completely sealed maintenance free battery so you don't need it to be vented. It isn't like a standard lead acid battery which is why you need the vent. You will be fine to put this in.

Yes, they dry completely since the bottom is ventilated. I have not encountered any mildew/mold buildup, but it would still be wise to clean it once a month or so.

yes, as long as the gasket is in place. I keep sourdough starter in mine, and I've never had problems with bacteria or mold.
