How often should you clean a dryer?

• <div><p>The frequency of cleaning your dryer depends on how often you use it. For regular households, it is recommended to clean the lint trap after each load of laundry. Additionally, thorough cleaning of the dryer—lint trap, drum, and exterior—should be done every few months. It's important to pay attention to the vent system as well. Ideally, it should be cleaned at least once a year, or six months if your dryer takes care of huge loads often, or more frequently if you notice reduced drying efficiency.</p></div>

Q: How can I maintain my washer or dryer to prevent future issues?

• <div><p>Regularly cleaning filters, lint traps, and vents and maintaining balanced loads aid in optimizing performance and longevity.</p></div>

Q: How do you avoid future clogs?

• <div><p>Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you&rsquo;ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if I have dampers?

• <div><p>You might have dampers if you have a ducted heating and cooling system. To find out for sure, find the main trunk line on your HVAC unit, then look for levers or handles on the ductwork. Contact a local HVAC professional if you can&rsquo;t find any dampers or want to install some.</p></div>

Q: How often should I have my dryer vent cleaned?

• <div><p>You should have your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-common-dryer-vent-cleaning-questions.htm">dryer vent cleaned</a> by a professional at least <b>once per year</b>. Over time, lint and other debris from your laundry get caught throughout the vent, causing a few different issues. A less severe problem caused by a clogged dryer vent is extended drying time for your clothes, which increases energy costs. More importantly, lint in a clogged dryer vent can easily catch fire, putting your household members and your home at significant risk. Keep in mind that decades-old dryer vent systems may need increased cleaning, so plan to complete this task twice per year.</p></div>
