Dryer
If your dryer is exhausted to the outside, inspect and clean the dryer exhaust ducting at least once a year.
A clothes dryer produces combustible lint. When the dryer is not exhausted to the outside, this lint is more apt to accumulate in and near the dryer, which could create a fire hazard.
How to reduce the possibility of a fire hazard, if your dryer (gas dryers must be exhausted outside) is not exhausted to the outside:
•Clean the lint filter before every load. See Operating Your Dryer section.
Lint can gather inside the dryer and create a Fire
Hazard. This lint should be removed at least every 2 or 3 years, or more often, depending on dryer usage.
