Dryer Vent Installations

Wondering why your dryer vent clogs up with lint so fast? Your problem may be an incorrectly installed dryer vent exhaust duct! If your vent is not installed properly it may be causing lint to build up at a certain point and even restrict your dryers air flow. If lint is backing up the vent you could very well be susceptible to a dryer fire like the photo to the right.

A proper dryer vent should be made of rigid metal as this holds its  shape if bent and is  least likely to sag. Flexible plastic or flexible foil don't hold their shape and are likely to sag and trap lint. Using a heavy metal vent removes moisture from the laundry area, decreases the amount of lint buildup, and removes excess heat from your laundry area. 

Properly    installed     dryer    vents    use    a   rigid     metal   duct

There    are     over     15,000     dryer     fires    every year    caused    by    lint    build   up     inside    the    dryer !
