A significant number of home fires start in the laundry room, via reviewed
Listen, we get it, doing laundry is tedious and time-consuming, regardless of whether you have the best washing machine on the market or a cheap washer/dryer pair in the basement of your apartment complex. As such, no one really wants to spend more time than they already do with their washer and dryer.
However, removing the lint from your dryer is a fairly straightforward process. Just follow the steps below, and you'll have greatly reduced the likelihood that your dryer catches on fire.Step-by-Step 1. Disconnect Your Dryer For a thorough cleaning, you’ll have to get behind the machine, which can be a challenge depending on how your laundry room is arranged. Still, that’s where all the nasty stuff is hiding. So unplug your dryer, grab a screwdriver and vacuum, and get to work.
3. Clean Inside the Dryer Next, remove the dryer’s rear panel and exhaust duct. Every dryer is different, so you should consult your owner’s manual for specifics, but you'll rarely need any tool more complex than a common screwdriver. Once everything is removed, you’ll be greeted by a thick mass of fuzzy lint.
4. Clean the Dryer Duct At this point, the dryer itself should be clear. But unless you have a ventless dryer, you'll still have 10 to 20 feet of duct to contend with. The easiest way to clean it out is with a leaf blower or some other high-powered fan. You should use the brush to pull lint off the sides of the tube and out of the duct. Remove the lint from the brush and repeat until nothing comes out.
