If so, then you need to clean you Dryer duct (also known as a dryer vent) on a regular basis. Dryer exhaust vents should be inspected and cleaned at least once a year depending on the size of the household and dryer usage. Some experts say that you should have it inspected or cleaned more frequently if you use your dryer more than the average household. Experts say the average household does 5 full loads of laundry a week.

One cause of fires in the United States are Dryers. If the vent gets clogged, the heat from your dryer can ignite the debris which can cause a cataclysmic and killer house or commercial fire. Carbon monoxide is vented through your dryer's vent. The most common symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning are headache, dizziness, weakness, upset stomach, vomiting, chest pain, and confusion. These symptoms are often described as “flu-like.” If you breathe in a lot of CO it can make you pass out or kill you. The fumes that a gas dryer emits are dangerous. Imagine if your vent was semi or completely clogged and those harmful fumes backed up into your home. This is just another reason to have your Dryer vent checked and cleaned.
