DRYER Vent
MAXIMIZE YOUR DRYER EFFICIENCY BY KEEPING THE
DUCTING CLEAN.
1. Disconnect or Turn off the electrical power.
2. Disconnect the ducting from the dryer.
3. Clean the ducting from the end where the
dryer is connected using:
• the hose attachment of your vacuum cleaner
• a duster attached to a pole (for straight
stretches) or to a drain cleaning wire (for less
accessible areas).
4. Inspect the wall vent and check that there is
sufficient possible air flow. Check that:
• the flap can move freely (use a mirror if
difficult to see)
• the flap is fully open when the dryer is running
• no wildlife (birds, insects,...) have nested inside the ducting.
