Maybe it should be plumbing? was thinking of an in-line aav using pressure from tumble dryer to open one-way valve and dump hot wet air into stack pipe. Is this stupid? New house - no outside wall available
 
Sorry, but yes I think it would be stupid, the potential danger of sewage backing up is too high.What if the valve became jammed with fluff? I would suggest you either bought a condensing drier or a converter if you cannot get to an outside wall.

The back pressure will cause the dryer to overheat and in turn the thermostats will trip.
