A clogged dryer vent will prevent air flow and maintain the heat and moisture within your clothes thus having to re-run your dryer numerous times and increasing your expenditures on energy.
Purpose
It is essential to clean your dryer vents regularly. They are intended to collect lint and provide air flow to dry your clothes, linen, or towels. Dryer vents are designed to keep the warm air out and allow the moisture to escape outside of the dryer. When dryer vents are clogged, it will retain the heat and moisture within its tubes and result in mold or mildew. This poses as a health risk and could potentially result in respiratory and allergy problems. It will also increase the amount of lint stuck within your vents due to sticking to the moisture within.
Maintenance
It is important to remove the lint from your lint trap every time the dryer finishes running, otherwise it could pose as a fire hazard or result in needing repairs. It will also extend the life span of your dryer and allow it to function properly for longer.
You should regularly check the vent pipes leading to the exterior of the house from the dryer to see if the lint buildup is noticeable from the outside. This will allow you to see just how clogged your vents may be.
Fire Risk
Did you know that dryers cause over 15,000 fires each year? Continual usage of a dryer with clogged vents drastically increases your chances of having an in-home fire.
