In order to prevent fires and other hazards to your health and property, top appliance manufacturers recommend thorough dryer vent cleaning every year. In addition to benefitting your safety, dryer vent cleaning can also reduce your energy bills, save you money, and make laundry a more pleasant chore.
In the United States, there are over 10,000 dryer fires reported annually, resulting in many injuries and deaths. Over $35 million worth of property is estimated to be lost every year. The leading cause of dryer fires in the United States is improper dryer vent cleaning.
Tiny sparks or super-heated dryer air can cause the lint built up in the system to ignite. Your whole laundry room could burn down before you realize what is happening.
In the dryer or exhaust duct, lint can build up and cause a fire. When lint builds up in dryers and where they are located, it can obstruct airflow, cause excessive build-up, and create a fire. Lint accumulation combined with reduced airflow makes for an ideal environment for fires. Usually, dryer fires are caused by lint, which is highly combustible. Flammable lint trapped in dryer vents is a danger that needs immediate attention.
Fires can be started by dirty vents. You don't want to be another one of the 15,000+ dryer fire victims every year.

Of course, how often you use your dryer will determine how often you must do this. This could be as frequently as twice a year in large households. However, most households only need to do it once a year.
A smooth surface and no rust make aluminum the perfect material. It also does not collect lint as easily. Galvanized steel or rigid metal is stiffer and comes in longer sections. Thin foil is less expensive but highly flammable, so avoid it.
Pipes made of PVC are meant for plumbing applications and cannot be used as dryer vents. Static charges can build up in PVC pipes, igniting the dryer lint, contributing to house fires.
If you own a gas dryer, venting it into the garage is extremely dangerous and potentially deadly. A gas-fired dryer emits a very small amount of carbon monoxide, so it needs to be vented outside.
