: Are your Dryer Ducts Aluminum or Vinyl? Dryer vent installation: Have you looked at the
ductwork attached to your clothes dryer? Is it aluminum, or plastic or vinyl? This is important to know. Recent UL safety codes require solid metal or
semi-rigid material be used for the dryer duct system. To understand why this is, consider the
function of the dryer vent system:
Heat Removal
The hot air and moisture removed from your laundry is removed from the dryer drum and carried
through the dryer duct system to a vent located outdoors. State law requires all gas dryers be vented
outside.
Lint Removal
Another function of the dryer vent system is to remove the lint that is produced by your laundry
as it dries. Most of the lint is caught
in the lint screen; however, some does end up in the dryer ducts too. If it doesn’t make its way to the vent
outdoors, it can build up in the duct system to cause problems over time.
Lint Build-up Prevents Heat Removal
What kind of dryer vent do you have? Many older homes were created using vinyl
instead of metal. While this used to be the standard material for dryer ducts,
years of experience have shown this to be dangerous. If your dryer were to throw a spark, it is
very possible that the lint in the vinyl duct could ignite and cause a very
rapidly spreading fire.
