Signs your dryer vent needs cleaning
- Clothes are still damp after a normal cycle.
- The dryer or the laundry room gets very hot.
- You smell something burning or musty when the dryer runs.

- The outside vent flap barely opens while the dryer is running.
- It has been more than a year since the vent line was cleaned.
Why it matters
Lint is highly flammable. The U.S. Fire Administration reports thousands of home clothes dryer fires every year, and failure to clean is the leading cause. A clean vent also lets the dryer run shorter cycles, which saves energy and wear on the machine. Source: U.S. Fire Administration.

Common questions
How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?
Most homes should have the vent line cleaned about once a year, and more often with a large family, long vent runs or roof vents.
How long does it take?
A typical home takes under an hour. Long runs, roof vents or bird nests can take longer.
Can I do it myself?
Cleaning the lint trap after every load is your job. The full vent line, especially roof or long runs, is easier and safer with professional tools.
Do you work in winter?
Yes. Dryers run more in winter, and frozen or blocked exterior flaps are a common winter call in Fargo–Moorhead.
