Are You Due for a Dryer Vent Cleaning?

How do you know if you’re due for a dryer vent cleaning?

  • Your clothes are taking longer than usual to dry.
  • You’re spotting lint around the dryer or on your laundry.
  • There’s excessive heat in the laundry area or on the dryer itself.
  • You notice a burning odor during or after drying cycles.
  • The vent hood flap outside doesn’t open properly during dryer operation.
  • You notice debris, nests, or other foreign objects in the vent outlet.
  • It’s been a year or more since your last vent cleaning.

How Is Lint Buildup Dangerous?

As lint builds up in your dryer (an inevitable outcome of running the appliance), it slowly starts affecting your dryer’s ability to properly vent. Now, some lint is fine – your dryer vent is designed to take on a bit of buildup from time to time. But as weeks pass and things start to accumulate, issues can arise. Things like…

  • Overheating of the appliance
  • Increased risk of dryer fires
  • Carbon monoxide leaks
  • Lots of wear and tear – on your clothes and the dryer

You’ll also be forced to run more drying cycles, which increases your energy bills and will likely be cause for a replacement dryer sooner, rather than later.

Long, Winding Dryer Vent Runs: Why They’re a Problem

Extended and convoluted vents, especially those with lots of bends and turns, can impede airflow. These also have more areas where lint can get caught up and trapped, which will only exacerbate any current issues.

This leaves you dealing with subpar dryer performance (resulting in extended drying times and increased energy consumption), a heightened risk of dryer fires or carbon monoxide exposure, and a shortened lifespan for the dryer itself.
