Check your dryer vent
The next time you are cleaning out the lint trap on your clothes dryer, go an extra step and check the exhaust hose that blows the hot air outdoors. The lint trap doesn't catch everything; some lint always escapes and builds up in the dryer vent. Not only does that affect the efficiency of your dryer but it can also be a serious hazard. Many fires begin in homes each year because of the trapped, heated lint in clothes dryer vent hoses. So take a minute to clean out the vent hose and to check the exterior vent on your dryer. It just takes a few minutes and it's an important step to ensuring your home's safety from fire.
