Thanks.



There are other issues that have not been addressed.
If you use clothes dryer softener sheets, like Bounce, they leave a
film on the lint screen which needs to be washed off with soap (Dawn)
and water.
Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before placing back in dryer.

Also, your laundry room door needs to be left open at least a little
to allow for easier replacement of exhaust air.
