Lint Screen & Dryer Lint Trap Cleaning
Over time, lint and debris can build up in your dryer vent system, leading to reduced efficiency, higher energy bills, and a serious fire risk. While the lint screen captures most of the lint, some always gets past and collects in the vent line and trap. Dryer Vent Ninjas provides expert cleaning of lint screens, traps, and vent lines to help keep your system safe and running at its best.

Disconnected Dryer Vents: A Hidden Safety Risk in West Michigan
Disconnected Dryer Vents: A Hidden Safety Risk in West Michigan
A disconnected dryer vent might seem like a small issue, but in reality, it poses serious safety and health hazards to your home. At Dryer Vent Ninjas, we regularly help homeowners in Holland and surrounding areas fix unsafe dryer vent systems and restore peace of mind.
The Dangers of a Disconnected Dryer Vent
Fire Hazards: Lint is highly flammable, and without a properly connected dryer vent, it can accumulate quickly around the dryer and inside the vent line. When exposed to the high heat of a drying cycle, this buildup can ignite. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), lint buildup is a leading cause of residential dryer fires in the U.S.
Health Risks A disconnected vent line—especially on gas dryers—can release dangerous gases like carbon monoxide into your home. Excess heat and moisture can also lead to mold and mildew growth, worsening air quality and triggering respiratory issues.
Energy Waste: Improper venting leads to longer drying times. That means your dryer works harder, uses more energy, and drives up your utility bill — all while wearing out the appliance faster.
Property Damage: Moist air from an unvented or disconnected dryer can cause serious damage to walls, ceilings, and floors — including warping, mold, and rot. The repair costs can be significant.
Signs Your Dryer Vent May Be Disconnected
Lint around the dryer or laundry area: If lint is collecting behind or beneath the dryer, your vent may be loose or disconnected.
Excess heat or humidity: A stuffy, hot laundry room often signals that moist air isn’t being vented properly.
Damp or musty laundry: When air can’t vent out, clothes take longer to dry — or come out with a musty smell.
Mildew odors: Moisture buildup leads to odor and organic growth in your dryer or laundry area.
How to Keep Your Dryer Vent Secure
Use the Right Connector
Opt for rigid metal ducts and tight-sealing clamp connections rather than long, flexible or plastic hoses.
Secure with Clamps or Screws
Ensure all connections are tight and reinforced with proper fasteners.
Use Metal Ducts
Avoid plastic or foil materials. Metal ducts are safer, more durable, and code-compliant.
Proper Dryer Placement
Leave space behind the dryer to avoid crushing or stressing the vent line.
Schedule Regular Maintenance
Have your system inspected and cleaned at least once a year by professionals who can catch loose fittings or hidden blockages.
What to Do if Your Dryer Vent Hose Falls Off
If you discover your dryer vent has come disconnected
1. Stop using the dryer immediately and unplug it.
2. Inspect the vent system for cracks, loose clamps, or disconnections.
3. Reconnect the hose only if you’re confident in your ability to do so safely.
4. Call a professional to properly diagnose and repair the issue.
Dryer vents are more complex than they look. Attempting a DIY repair without proper knowledge and tools can lead to further damage or safety risks.
