Dryer Vent Cleaning questions, answered by experts

You’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’t see a damper in either of these places, you might not have one.

Taking good care of your dryer will help ensure its longevity and keep your clothes nice and dry. Some dryer maintenance tips include:

  • Clearing the lint screen after every use

  • Deep cleaning the lint screen with detergent every three months

  • Don’t overload your dryer

  • Cleaning the dryer vent at least once a year

  • Cleaning the dryer drum twice a year with a microfiber cloth and rubbing alcohol

Signs include longer drying cycles, a burning smell, excess lint behind the dryer, and the vent hood not opening properly.

Use air purifiers, clean regularly, and ensure proper ventilation to reduce pollutants.

Professionals use specialized tools to clean dryer vents effectively. These tools typically include a combination of flexible rods and brushes designed to navigate the vent's twists and turns. The brushes dislodge and loosen lint and debris, while the rods help extend the reach through the vent. High-powered vacuums with HEPA filters are also used to capture and remove the dislodged lint and particles, ensuring a thorough cleaning. In some cases, professionals may employ video inspection cameras to assess the condition of the vent and confirm that it's entirely clean.
