A dryer vent cleaning checklist clears the hose and the outside hood, then proves air leaves the house.
People empty the lint screen and leave a kinked, lint-packed duct that keeps heat in the laundry room.
Why This Happens
The screen is visible and the duct is behind the appliance. Out of sight becomes a longer dry time and a fire risk.
What's Inside

Frequently Asked Questions
Is cleaning the lint screen enough?
No. This dryer vent cleaning checklist is the hose and the outside hood. The screen is every-load, not the duct.
How do I know it is blocked?
Clothes take longer, the laundry room gets hot, or the outside flap barely opens.
Can I clean a long in-wall duct myself?
The hose you can see is DIY. A long hidden run needs a pro with proper brushes.
What hose should I avoid?
Crushed foil or plastic coils that kink. A short metal duct stays safer.
