Why You Should Clean Your Lint Filter After Every Use?

You have heard that you should clean your dryer lint filter after every load. When your clothes tumble around in the dryer, the high heat cause your clothing, towels, and linens to shed some of their fibers. The lint screen catches these fibers to avoid obstructing the dryer vent hose.

Lint screen acts as a first line of defense for your dryer system. However, it is not really designed to attract all the lint your dryer produces. The only way it could block all the lint is if it completely blocked off the flow of air which would, cause your whole dryer system to not function properly anymore. The lint screen is only designed to catch some of the lint your dryer system produces while still allowing the required air flow through the screen, lint trap, fan, and exhaust.

Higher Energy Costs

If the lint screen is blocked with a thick layer of lint, your dryer system has to work harder to dry the clothes which in turn leads to high energy costs. Removing the dryer lint from the lint screen allows more air to flow out into the exhaust vent and enable smooth dryer operation.

More Drying Time

Proper airflow is required to dry your clothes in a single drying cycle. If you need to continually add time to each drying cycle because your clothes are still damp, it might be because your lint screen is blocked.

Risk of fire

All dryer systems generate high temperatures, and lint is highly flammable. You need to clean this fire starter to help keep your home and family safe from dryer fires.

Note that cleaning your dryer's lint filter only removes around 25 percent of the lint that can build up throughout the dryer vent system. You need to clean your dryer vent system twice a year.

Clean Your Dryer Vent System with the right tools

Cleaning your dryer vent is very important for both the safety and the performance of your dryer system. Improper airflow is the main cause of all dryer mechanical problems.
