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
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
