Why Your Dryer Might Be a Hidden Danger

Cleaning Your Dryer: Why It Matters More Than You Think. Dryers are meant to dry — but what if they’re hiding hazards instead? Each cycle leaves behind lint and moisture that build up in hidden places, putting your health and home at risk.

Lint Build-Up
Vents clogged with lint reduce airflow, making cycles longer and energy bills higher. But lint isn’t just waste — it’s highly flammable and can ignite under heat.

1. Moisture Build-Up
   Damp lint and residue create the perfect storm for mold and mildew. That means musty-smelling clothes and increased allergy triggers in your home.

2. Fire Hazard
   Most dryer fires don’t start from electrical faults — they start in the lint trap. Just a few clumps can become a dangerous ignition source.

3. Carbon Monoxide Risk
   For gas dryers, blocked vents can push carbon monoxide back into your home. Symptoms like nausea, dizziness, and confusion are early warnings — prolonged exposure can be deadly.

4. Poor Air Quality
   When vents are clogged, lint and allergens circulate into the laundry room and the air you breathe. This especially impacts kids and those with asthma or allergies.
