And Don't Forget!
- Dryers should be properly grounded.
- Check the outdoor vent flap to make sure it is not covered by any obstruction.
- Keep the area around your dryer clear of things that can burn, like boxes, cleaning supplies and clothing, etc.
- Clothes that have come in contact with flammable substances, like gasoline, paint thinner, or similar solvents should be laid outside to dry, then can be washed and dried as usual.
