Dryer Vent Cleaning from the Appliance to the Outside Cap
The whole run, not the lint screen
Dryer vent cleaning follows the path air actually takes. The lint screen catches some of it. The rest packs the hose behind the dryer, the pipe through the wall, and the cap outside. A screen you empty every load can still sit in front of a line that is half closed.
What a full clear includes
We move the dryer, disconnect the transition, brush and vacuum the line to the exterior, and clean the cap so the flap opens. Crushed vinyl hose gets called out. A proper rigid or semi-rigid transition is the safer replacement if the old one is flat. The dryer is reconnected and run so we can feel airflow at the cap.
Signs the line is restricted
Clothes take an extra cycle, the cabinet is hot to the touch, or the laundry room smells like baked lint. Those show up before a failure. Call (949) 992-3299 and tell us whether the dryer is against an outside wall or the run goes up through the roof. Roof runs take longer.
