Even When You Clean the Lint Screen
Lint Still Builds Up in Every Duct System
While it’s obvious that dryer exhaust problems will increase your energy bills, it’s important to
know they also create a very real fire hazard. According to the U.S. Fire Administration,
there are more than 40 dryer fires every day. With the LintAlert, you’ll rest easy knowing
you’re helping protect your home and family.
How does it work?
The LintAlert is easy to install. It attaches to your dryer’s
exhaust hose and uses pressure differential technology
to monitor dryer efficiency. As lint builds up over time,
or any blockage occurs, back pressure is produced.
LED indicators continually show how well your dryer is
exhausting, updating you as the exhaust becomes more
restricted. When there’s a danger, an alarm is triggered
to let you know the dryer needs attention.

Protecting Your Home and Family
As lint builds up over time and restricts
airflow, the LED light bar blockage
indicator progressively illuminates.
Armed with this information, you’ll always know how
safely and efficiently your dryer is exhausting.
