3. The dryer is the culprit in the warming. Move it, but leave
the washer on the plumbing wall. Move the dryer to the outside wall and vent it. The vent kit is cheap. You can run the dryer with an extension cord or install surface wiring for it.

Here's the thing. An unvented gas dryer is a serious carbon monoxide danger. Even with the garage door closed, it could be putting CO into your house. If it's an electric dryer, wire a new 220 outlet on the other wall.
