What Commercial Dryer Repair Covers
Signs a Commercial Dryer Needs Service
- Burning smell or excess lint near the exhaust

Why the Vent Matters
Clean the vent pipe roughly once a year, or sooner if loads start taking longer to dry; a lint removal service can do this. Source: NFPA (via U.S. Department of Energy) - Clothes Dryer & Washing Machine Safety
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
Dryer exhaust must go outdoors, never into an attic, crawlspace or other building cavity; ventless dryers with a condensate drain are the exception. Source: U.S. DOE Building America Solution Center (PNNL) - Proper Clothes Dryer Venting
