Safety tips from the U.S. Fire Administration on ways to reduce your clothes dryer from starting a fire:

You are at higher risk of having a clothes dryer fire if you don’t clean your lint filter and dryer vents.

Follow these simple safety tips to prevent a clothes dryer fire in your home –

  • Have your dryer installed and serviced by a professional.
  • Do not use the dryer without a lint filter. Clean the lint filter before and after each cycle.
  • Do not forget to clean the back of the dryer where lint can build up.
  • Check the venting system behind the dryer to make sure that it is not damaged, crushed or restricted.
  • Make sure that the outdoor vent covering opens when the dryer is operating.
