Check the Vent Before You Call
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
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
Fasten duct joints with clamps or foil tape rather than screws, which protrude into the duct and snag lint. Source: U.S. DOE Building America Solution Center (PNNL) - Proper Clothes Dryer Venting
