Facts & Figures

Clothes dryers can be found in 80 percent, or 81.5 million homes throughout the United States.

A full load of wet clothes placed in a dryer contains about one half gallon of water. As water is removed, lint is created from the clothes.

Clothes dryers are one of the most expensive appliances in your home to operate. The longer it runs, the more money it costs you.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that 15,500 fires associated with clothes dryers occur annually. These fires account for an average of 10 deaths and 310 injuries and more than $84.4 million in property damage annually.

On a positive note, the number of clothes dryer fires has dropped by 35% from the 24,000 fires that occurred annually, on average, in the late 1970s.

Vent Lengths and Types

The maximum length a dryer vent can be before problems arise, or are noticed, varies greatly between brands and models. The vent material and the type of outside vent cover being used also contribute to the maximum vent length allowed.

In all cases the longest possible working vent should be made of rigid metal vent material with a large mouth or louvered outdoor hood. Flexible metal ducting although a bit easier to work with causes reduced air flow due to its corrugated design and will contribute to a lint buildup in the ducting over time. Flexible Nylon ducting is no longer approved in most areas for dryer venting due to the possibility of a fire hazard and has never been approved for use on gas dryers.

Dryer vent installation should be handled by a professional to ensure maximum dryer performance and safety. Proper dryer vent installation is essential to promote proper air flow needed for a clothes dryer to function properly. Without air flow, heat and moisture cannot escape the dryer drum; therefore, laundry will not dry. This will cause the dryer to run longer and use excess energy.

Many appliance manufacturers have made it a policy to advise service companies and consumers that the use of vinyl, plastic or flexible foil no longer meets current safety codes. They are also advising that dryer exhaust ducts be within maximums provided for length and the number of bends and turns.

Short and straight is the rule for installing a dryer vent system. In the past most dryers were located in the basement. As times changed, people preferred to have their laundry facilities on the first floor. This convenience also improved efficiency as the dryer ducts are very short with the dryer placed on an outside wall and the vent located outdoors, just a few inches away.
