How To Clean Your Clothes Dryer Vent (with pictures)
I read a home fire safety article recently and it inspired me to clean
the hot air exhaust vent on our clothes dryer. I also figured it would help the appliance run more efficiently and cost us less money to use. I used a wet/dry shop vacuum, but just doing the cleaning by hand works really well too. I took pictures of the process and created a quick guide. Here's the gallery - http://www.paulstravelpictures.com/C...Cleaning-Guide There were some small holes around the part of the hose that connects to the outside vent, so I used metal HVAC duct tape to create a better seal. That should prevent any of the hot air from entering the house and making the air conditioner work harder. I hope someone finds it to be useful. Cheers, Paul Michaels Ft. Lauderdale, FL |
