Plastic bird guard

I run a professional dryer vent cleaning company. We see hundreds of dryers every year. This is the only exterior vent cover we install. Most calls we get for “my dryer isn’t drying” have nothing to do with the dryer. The problem is almost always the vent cover. Screens clog. Cheap covers choke airflow. Lint builds up fast. This one doesn’t. The vertical bar design lets the dryer breathe while still keeping birds and animals out. From real-world use, lint getting stuck in the bars is extremely rare. When we replace a clogged cover with this one, the problem is usually solved on the spot. It’s code-compliant, installs clean, and holds up. No callbacks. No nonsense. If you want your dryer to work the way it’s supposed to, this is the cover to buy.

I used 3 of these to protect vent covers because small birds were able to get through the louvers on the covers. These are made of thick plastic and the vertical bars should allow lint from the dryer to get through unlike other guards that tend to catch the lint. Excellent design
