The most common and clearest symptom of a clogged dryer vent is clothes that used to dry in one cycle now requiring two in Washington, IL.

A restricted vent reduces that airflow and the clothes remain damp at the end of the cycle in Washington, IL.
A dryer that is hot to the touch on the exterior surfaces during operation has restricted airflow preventing heat from exhausting through the vent in Washington. The heat that is supposed to be exhausted with the moisture is instead building up inside the dryer cabinet in Washington, IL. This elevated temperature is both a component wear accelerant and the temperature environment in which lint ignition risk increases in Washington.
A burning smell during dryer operation is a specific warning sign that should be treated as urgent in Washington, IL. Lint that has accumulated at a hot point in the vent system can produce a burning smell before igniting in Washington. If you notice a burning smell during dryer operation, stop the dryer immediately and call MBM for same-day dryer vent cleaning in Washington, IL.

Lint is composed of fine fibers from clothing fabrics in Washington, IL. These fine fibers have an extremely high surface area relative to their mass, which makes them highly combustible in Washington.

The operating temperature of the dryer increases as the restriction increases in Washington.
