Proper maintenance will promote drying efficiency, reduce the chance of a fire, and maximize the lifespan of your dryer. Several factors within dryer vents combine to make these systems dangerous. First, there is heat in the form of steam coming out of the dryer. This steam carries dryer lint, which builds up faster than you might imagine. A buildup of lint in the dryer or the vent can cause a blockage that stops the airflow. Accumulated dryer lint can ignite and cause a serious house fire. This causes tragic accidents and extensive property damage each year.
