  1. The dryer vent in an average, single-family home should be cleaned about once per year. This average can fluctuate, however, based on certain variables, such as: Family size - If you have a large family, you likely run a lot of loads of wash to keep up with the need, and would need to have your dryer vent cleaned more frequently. Young children - Believe it or not, the ages of your children can affect the frequency with which you need to clean your dryer vent. If you have young children in the house, you’ll need to buy clothes more often to keep up with your quickly-growing kids, and new clothes produce more lint than clothes that have been laundered innumerable times. Pets - Pets shed and their fur and hair makes it onto our clothes, and in turn, into the lint trap and dryer vent, causing it to clog earlier than it might for a pet-free home. Type of laundry - If you launder a lot of towels, blankets, fleece clothing, and other such items, your dryer vent will fill up much faster than if you primarily launder more “standard” clothing and material. The best thing you can do for your dryer vent is to watch for warning signs that your dryer vent needs to be cleaned.

This wastes energy and also causes your machine to wear out faster than it would if the vent were clear. Higher electric bills - If you notice an increase in the electric bill, this can indicate that the dryer is working too hard to dry the clothes, most likely due to a clogged dryer vent. It’s been over a year since the vent was cleaned- Stay on the safe side and schedule a dryer vent appointment if it has been a year or more since the last cleaning. Dryer vent cleaning is an inexpensive service that can truly be lifesaving. (Remember that a clogged dryer vent is a fire hazard!)
