The NFPA Recommends The Following Guidelines:

REPLACE THE PLASTIC OR FOIL, ACCORDION-TYPE DUCT WITH A RIGID OR CORRUGATED SEMI-RIGID METAL DUCT. Most manufacturers specify the use of a rigid or corrugated semi-rigid metal duct, which provides maximum air-flow. The plastic or foil duct is more susceptible to kinking or crushing.

* TAKE SPECIAL CARE WHEN DRYING CLOTHES THAT HAVE BEEN SOILED WITH VOLATILE CHEMICALS. Wash those clothes more than once, and preferably, hang them to dry.

* When moving into a new home, it is vital that new homeowners should ask the age of the dryer vent, its size and where it exits the home.

* Homeowners should also inquire about when the dryer vents and air ducts were last cleaned and request that the vent is cleaned before moving.

* Have dryer vents inspected and cleaned annually. Regular dryer vent cleaning promotes dryer safety and efficiency. Homes with pets and dryers that are used several times a week may require special attention.

 

Insurance companies recommend that you have your dryer vent inspected and cleaned.

If you have recently purchased your home it is wise to have your dryer vent cleaned since you most likely have no idea when the previous home owner had them last cleaned.
 

Your Air Conditioner is the most expensive appliance to run in your  home. Your dryer is the second most expensive. A clogged dryer vent will cause a dryer to run hotter and harder. This will increase your monthly utility bills. The longer the dryer runs the more it costs to operate. When the vent is restricted it is overheating your dryer and damaging the heating elements, the heat sensor safety switches and computer boards. As little as a half-inch buildup of lint in a 4” duct reduces the dryers efficiency by almost half.
