do you clean dryer vent? ap 10-26-2006
Lint tends to collect at the elbows of the dryer vent.

The way to test if your dryer vent needs to be cleaned is to disconnect
the transition duct (the flexible hose that runs from the back of the
dryer to the wall) and replace it with pantyhose. If your drying time
decreases, the vent is clogged.
