It is ducted right into the wall and there is a vent going outside but the vent had been taped up for years because someone thought that rats would be getting in there, and no I didn't punch a hole in the wall, I was leaning over a box put my hand on it and it gave way. As far as the well goes all of the people on it just put $15,000 in updating it and I just ran new pipe from the well to the house for a break on rent and the water has been tested and is great.

I know this is an old thread but this is the only place that I could find info on the moisture content of drywall on a decent forum. So I'm in a rental Unit daylight basement on well water. The well water pipes going into the house have shut off valves sticking out of the drywall in a bedroom backed against the buried wall of the house On the other side of the wall is the bathroom with good ventilation but the dryer vent is just going right into the drywall. I was moving a bed into the room and I leaned against the wall with my hand and the drywall gave way leaving a hole in the wall. The wall is really soft but not wet to the touch and there is a toilet in the bathroom on the other side of the soft wall also. I think the toilet is leaking because the base board is starting to come off the wall. The other tenant upstairs has mold growing on his wall and I believe it's right above this wall. My landlord isn't very good with fixing things properly and always does it himself. Does anyone know if my landlord is legally obligated to fix this problem? If so where could I find the info. At this point just to hear someones opinion that doesn't think that I'm making a big deal out of nothing would be nice. Thanks, Josh
