Q: How often should exhaust systems be inspected?

• <div><p>Exhaust systems should be inspected annually to prevent efficiency loss and address any arising mechanical issues.</p></div>

Q: Why is my dryer wet on the inside?

• <div><p>If your dryer is wet inside, it could be due to a poorly designed ventilation system. This happens more frequently during the hotter months as heat is trapped inside the vent duct. Broken or failing seams and seals on the vent pipe can also allow warm air to enter. If changing the ventilation is not an option, consider insulating your vent pipes to reduce moisture capturing.</p></div>

Q: Where is the backdraft damper located?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll find the backdraft damper near the top of the range hood (where it connects to the ductwork). However, some range hoods also have a second damper, which is located close to the roof or exterior wall where the ductwork ends. If you don&rsquo;t see a damper in either of these places, you might not have one.</p></div>

Q: Are air ducts and dryer vents the same?

• <div><p>No, air ducts and dryer vents are not the same. The dryer vent is connected to a specific appliance, the dryer, and is meant to direct the hot, moist air from the washed clothes to the outside of the home. Air ducts move air from the HVAC system around the home. It&rsquo;s essential to schedule cleanings for the dryer vent and the air ducts. </p></div>

Q: What do I do if my dryer catches on fire?

• <div><p>Call 911 immediately. If you have a fire extinguisher or fire blanket near the laundry room, you can attempt to extinguish the fire, but don&rsquo;t open or touch the dryer. If you can&rsquo;t put the fire out, evacuate yourself, your family, and your pets from the house, closing the laundry room door behind you. Turn off the electricity to your home via the outside fuse box, then wait for the fire department. After a dryer fire, have your home&rsquo;s electrical system inspected to make sure there isn&rsquo;t any damage.</p></div>
