Clearing Out Lint and Other Obstructions

The leading cause of dryer fires and dryer-related carbon monoxide poisoning is lint obstructing the exhaust vent. Lint is flammable, and when heat is unable to escape properly, it builds up and creates a fire risk. 

In today's homes, the dryer is often located in the inner core of the house, and the heat exhausts through a long, twisting, turning vent. Unlike the vents in older homes, which tended to be short and direct, newer vents are more likely to develop obstructions. Birds, rodents, and insect nests can also obstruct your dryer vent.

Natural gas cloth dryers require clear exhaust ducts to prevent dangerous natural gases from being forced back into your home.

If you find that your dryer is unusually hot or that your clothes are not drying completely, you may have an obstructed dryer vent. It's time to contact Dano's Chimney Sweep. Fill out our online form to request a call back and schedule an appointment.
