Properly routing your dryer vent system comes with many benefits. We strongly encourage you to seek professional help for this. Below are the dangers that you want to avoid at all costs:

Lint will likely clog up faster if your dryer vent is long and/or has many bends and turns. This is extremely dangerous as lint catches fire easily, which is not great when paired with the heat emitted by your dryer. While it might appear unimportant, investing in rerouting services for your dryer vent is significant for your well-being and safety.

Did you know that the placement of your vent contributes to its efficacy? Your vent should be as short and straight as possible to work at its optimum capacity. This way, the airflow is not restricted. Hire professionals to look into your dryer system and reroute it when necessary. It will save you energy and money.

A broken or separated vent means that the dryer will not function very well, if it functions at all. It will need to go through more than one cycle to dry your clothes effectively. The longer you dry your clothes, the more expensive your electric bill becomes. International Residential Code requires dryer vents to exit outside of the home, and at least three feet away from a window or a door. This will allow air to flow better and prevent mold and mildew growth. Rerouting your dryer vent will prevent mold growth and eliminate the nasty smell from your home.
