What Gets Fixed on a North New Hyde Park Dryer Call

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
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
