Dryer vent on 2015 Elevation?

Hi all,

New user here, and first time RV owner. Thanks fir being part of a great resource. I've found many answers to questions here. Here's one I'm having less luck with.

Is this a dryer vent? If so, how would I connect the dryer to it? If not, what the heck is it?

Thanks.

-Will

Looks like a furnace register to me, or at least a return air to the furnace. If it's not on an outside wall it's not a dryer vent.

Have you checked to see if there is any heat or air movement from it when the furnace is running?
It doesn't like look it would be to difficult to pop that louver off. then you would be able to see what it's connect to, if anything.

Vent

Pop it off and have a look to see where it goes.

Not a return

Popped off the louver and I see a foil hose that disappears down and to the left towards the closest wall. However, there's no exit point underneath and nothing on the exterior wall. Only place I haven't checked is the roof.

Also, there's no air movement while running the furnace. And, anyway, the furnace is 15' away with a huge kitchen slide-out in between.

I'll be calling Crossroads in the morning to see if they can identify it, but I'm 0 for 3 in getting answers from them on anything.

My wife noticed that there was a place labeled for a "vent fan" switch on the control panel for the garage. However, there's no switch there.

Anything I could be missing?

if its in your garage area, its the heat outlet from the furnace. Usually won't get much out of it.
