Dryer maintenance tip

Clothes dryer just doesn’t seem to be drying things the way it used to? Clothes still feeling just a tiny bit damp after going through a dryer cycle?

Check the dryer vent where it exhausts to the outside. Maybe it’s all plugged up with several months (maybe even years) worth of lint like mine was.

It’ll also keep your dryer from becoming a fire hazard.

A bunch of dryer lint pulled from the outside vent and sitting on the ground.

  1. Wow. You were lucky. Lint is a very serious fire hazard. Make it a habit to clean the filter EVERY time.
    Thanks for warning people.

  2. Yeah, I clean out the filter each time I take a load out. I overlooked the outside exhaust though and when I happened to walk past it yesterday, I noticed a bunch of lint sticking out. When I looked it was almost completely blocked. That’s what I pulled out of it.
