3. Remove the Dryer Vent (ductwork/pipe) and all dryer vent access doors – Inspect the entire dryer vent duct from the dryer to the exit point. There should be no cracks or restrictions. The vent should be air tight from the dryer to end of the discharge vent
4. Remove the Lint – Lint should be removed from both the vent and the back of the dryer. You can reach in and pull out the lint but for a more thorough cleaning use a vacuum hose.
