Dryer lint is extremely flammable!!! It should never vent into attic or anywhere but outside!

CO2 detectors with any gas in the house are a MUST!!

I had to reroute a few vents here and there in our attic after we moved in that the builders either had not connected properly, or didn't position properly to vent. Overall though, it was minor stuff, I'd seen far worse.

Why? Global Warming / Cooling / Climate Changing?

LOL You know what she meant.

As far as I know, it's now a required part of the building code to have them installed now, and older homes I believe are required to have them retrofitted to pass an inspection if the house is being sold. It's easily done though.

Yes, sorry CO detectors, not CO2.

Ours are hard-wired in to our alarm system. This way, not only will it sound in the house, but it will also send notification to the monitoring company in case we are unconscious from the gas!
