If your dryer isn't drying your clothes like it used to, you may not need a new dryer! A dryer duct clogged with lint, reduces airflow so your dryer doesn't dry as efficiently as it used to.
One of the major signs that it's time to have your dryer vent cleaned is the length of drying time. It should only take 30 to 45 minutes for the average size load of clothes to dry. If you notice that it is gradually taking longer to dry a load of clothes it is more than likely a venting problem.

Dryer lint is extremely flammable. In fact, clothes dryers cause many more home fires each year than chimney fires do. Cleaning the lint trap on your dryer is only part of the maintenance needed.
