Please check out my website for my Quick Connect Periscope! It's the PERFECT product that replaces the flex hose connection and GETS THE MACHINE CLOSER TO THE WALL! Safer than ANY flex hose behind your dryer! No more fooling with connecting the dryer to the duct! No more lint leakage forcing you to dust constantly!

PLEASE LIKE, SHARE & SUBSCRIBE FOLKS!!! I'm trying to grow the channel however I'd much rather spread the word on the dangers of your dryer vent AND SAVE A LIFE!!! You subscribing helps get this message to more and more people!
Cleaning your dryer vent should be on your "to do" list regardless of if you own or rent your home! ESPECIALLY if your vent is run in a tight crawl space.

I fell down a KZbin hole of deep cleaning videos and landed in a pile of dryer lint. I'm not disappointed. Super satisfying to watch.

That ventline hasn't been serviced in many years! That excessively long foilflex duct is a big reason for all that lint. Heck, there's enough lint there to make 10 pairs of pants, 15 shirts and a half dozen bath towels! 😁

And blow out dryers! If you noticed, that was a brand new machine… Wonder why it was showing a code… LOL, and it’s a previous customer of mine! Honestly though, it shows I need to get better at explaining the need and danger to folks but think there’s a fine line between scaring people and guaranteeing repeat business vs just being there to help whenever it happens to cross their mind… Juggling act for sure however I DEFINITELY didn’t explain correctly last time I was there! Thx again Bob! I appreciate both you watching as well as stepping out and sharing your thoughts with your experience!

Just BLOWS (pun intended) my mind how people put in new appliances and don’t clean vents and water lines. Then again if they can’t even clean the floor when they put them in that says everything! And yes, you could run that dryer hose from the roof and across the house at least twice 😆

it should just be mandatory regarding home designs that dryer vents directly to outside wall,,, no turns or elbows.. just a straight shot -4 feet hose at the most. i can see from my inside opening right through to exterior,,, never gets build up and if the slightest builds up i can literally swab clean with a toilet brush…. no risk of fire super easy to clean…

2:33 - Incredible mate, thank you for showing us the dangers of this buildup! But please - wear a respirator! You are at high risk of developing "Furrier's Lung." A type of occupational asthma once associated with cleaning rugs/furs. (When rugs were beaten.) There exists, in most households, hundreds of tiny larvae of an insect called "carpet beetles." (Most "moth" damage is actually carpet beetle damage.) These pinhead-sized larvae have microscopic spikes all over their bodies. Each larvae sheds thousands of spikes in their 1-3 year larvae stage. These spikes cause micro-puncture of the eyes, and lung tissue. In the lungs, they get stuck there. This is often what causes itchy, "allergy" eyes while dusting. Not just pollen! Inhale enough of them, over time - and you get asthma for life. Most vaccum cleaners will not "clean" the spikes away, unless they have micron filtration systems. Spikes just accumulate in homes year after year. The larvae eat natural clothing materials, (Silk, fur, wool, cotton,) dead skin cells, dead bugs, feathers, hair roots - all what you find in lint. LINT IS THEIR HOME. Please protect yourself! Sneezing/coughing/burning eyes is a warning - not an annoyance. Take care friend!

@@advsLLC Yeah, your mind will be blown! I had no idea about carpet beetles and their threat to health... Until my mother suddenly had respiratory issues. Overnight. Only thing that changed - she bought a house. After several years of wild goose chases finding out what may be wrong environmentally, thousands of unnecessary health tests/scans/mold tests coming up blank - boom, furriers lung. I found out about it reading a 1918 craft journal about fur sewing. Make your own clothes - but mask, beat furs outdoors....protect yourself from furrier's lung. Then it dawned on me - oh my God. My health and out of my mother's improved so much after we treated for the bugs and got an allergen-filtration vaccum. Night and day difference. We were sickly, lethargic, coughing, sneezing. All the time. I fared better, near 100% recovery. Ma still struggles; at least she's on the road to recovery now.

Why blow instead of vacuum? Vacuuming would be easier on your airways, and wouldn’t make a linty mess outside the customer’s house. (And with our fabrics now being mostly synthetic, vacuuming also keeps some microplastics out of the environment.) And if you vacuum from one end and snake from the other, lint won’t get trapped on the snake like shown early in the video.

I watch these lint vent cleaning videos and wonder what's the point of having a lint screen as part of the dryer if it just gives you a false sense of security and the lint is clogging up the air vent tube anyway? I thought that if you clean the lint screen after each load, you're safe.
