Lint Alert Helps Prevent Dryer Lint Buildup

We’ve discussed in the past how important it is to make sure your dryer is always as clear and lint-free as possible. And you might think you’re doing a great job maintaining it, but the truth is that lint builds up in your dryer no matter how much you clean it out.



Lint builds up in the hardest to reach places in your dryer, most of them you won’t even notice until it because an incredibly dangerous fire hazard. So how are you supposed to detect lint buildup in your dryer if you can’t even see it?

We’ve discovered a great gadget that all homeowners with dryer units should use. It’s called Lint Alert, a small device that continually checks the performance and status of your dryer and tells you when there is lint buildup occurring.



Being informed of lint build up is one of the easiest and best ways to avoid a major problem with your dryer unit. Lint Alert works as a preventative method by informing you that there are clogs and blockages in your dryer vent using a lighted scale. When it lights up about halfway through the scale, you know it's time to get your dryer vent cleaned out by a professional.

Not only will Lint Alert keep your home safe, but an inefficient dryer takes more energy (and in turn, more money) to get your clothing dry. Lint Alert can prevent dryer fires while actually monitoring the efficiency of your unit, and that’s a win/win in our book!
