Over the winter, lint can accumulate not just in the lint trap, but deep inside the vent system. This buildup can reduce your dryer’s efficiency and, more importantly, create a fire hazard. Dryer vent fires are a serious concern, but the good news is, cleaning your vents is simple and quick.
Regularly cleaning the lint trap is a good start, but don’t forget the vent itself. A clean vent system helps your dryer run more efficiently, reduces energy usage, and keeps your home safer.
Pro Tip: If you notice your dryer taking longer than usual to dry clothes or your clothes are unusually hot at the end of a cycle, it’s time for a vent cleaning!
Stay safe, keep things running smoothly, and give your dryer the care it deserves. 🔥
