Are your clothes not drying like they should? If your laundry is taking a long time to dry, that’s an indication of a clogged dryer duct.

BetterVenting has assembled some tips to help you pinpoint the problem with your dryer. It’s necessary to understand the problem at hand so that you’ll know what’s involved, how to go about fixing it and have a better idea of how long it will take.

The easiest way to make your laundry room safer is by using the right transition duct. Dryers naturally vibrate and become pushed back against the wall, crushing the duct and creating a dangerous fire hazard.

A dryer exhaust duct that is clogged with lint not only affects the performance of the dryer, it also creates the perfect environment for a dryer fire. Ducts that are bent, crimped, crushed or twisted in any fashion tend to collect more lint than straight ducts. The lint builds up over time and other factors, such as sticky residue from dryer sheets, condensation, critters living inside the ductwork, and how often the lint trap is cleaned, all contribute to restricting the airflow in the dryer exhaust duct.
