How Often Do I Really Need to Clean a Dryer Vent?

Momennakib09 Jan, 2025Business

The U.S. Fire Administration says over 15,000 dryer fires happen every year. Most are because people don’t clean the vents. Lint filters catch a lot of lint, but some gets through and builds up in the vents. Most dryers need cleaning every 1 to 3 years. But, how often depends on your household and dryer. Big families or those with pets might need to clean more often, like every six months. On the other hand, some dryers might go 3 or 4 years without needing a clean.
