Clogged Dryer Vent Warning Signs

Your dryer may be trying to tell you something. There are many warning signs that may indicate a problem with a dryer vent.


Excessive Lint

Excessive lint can be a warning sign that your dryer vents need to be cleaned and maintained.


Overheating / Shut off

Clogged dryer vents can lead to your dryer overworking and overheating. To prevent fires, your dryer may be warning you by shutting down.


Long Drying Times

Restricted air flow causes trapped moisture in your dryer, resulting in longer drying times.

How Often Should You Clean Your Dryer Vents?

Generally, homeowners should try to schedule cleaning their dryer vents once a year. This will also help prolong the life of your machine, which can save money in the long run.


For homeowners who use their dryers frequently or have homes that generate excessive amounts of lint from clothing, you may consider having them professionally cleaned every six months.

 

Even though this is a good rule for most people, if your home is prone to clogs or your vent is very dirty already when checked, then we may recommend a different schedule for you.

Saved $$$$ on a New Dryer

Arrived on time and the two gentlemen went straight to work. Our dryer was clogged and they pulled a ton of lint from the vent, the dryer, and the pipe vented out our roof. Our dryer is working so much better now. Saved my husband $$$$ on a new dryer.
