Why the Vent Matters
Never run a dryer without its lint filter, and clean the filter before or after every load; also clear lint that collects behind the dryer. Source: U.S. Fire Administration (FEMA) - Clothes Dryer Fire Safety
Swap plastic or foil accordion-style dryer ducts for rigid or corrugated semi-rigid metal duct, since flexible plastic and foil trap lint and crush or kink more easily. Source: U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission - Overheated Clothes Dryers Can Cause Fires
The outside termination should have a backdraft damper and no screen (screens trap lint), and the flap must open when the dryer runs and be kept clear of snow. Source: U.S. DOE Building America Solution Center (PNNL) - Proper Clothes Dryer Venting

Around Bedford
Most dryer calls in Bedford come down to the same handful of parts: the vent and lint path, the heat source, the belt and rollers, and the door and start switches.
Indiana licenses plumbers statewide through the Indiana Plumbing Commission but has no statewide HVAC technician license, so heating and mechanical contractor licensing, including gas appliance work, is set by individual counties and cities.

In Indiana, you can check a license with the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency License Verification or report a problem to the Indiana Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
