Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

Why is Dryer Lint Highly Flammable?

Dryer lint accumulates inside the dryer vent and lint trap and should be cleaned regularly to avoid or prevent house fire. The lint is highly flammable and is one of the ingredients of some fire starters because of its property. It is a visible mixture of textile fibers and other materials found in our clothing like cotton, linen, and wool combined together. What makes it flammable is the lint being fluffy and fibrous and if it is going to be mixed with gas or pressured by a hot air, then it will ignite and spark, then starts burning. It is very dangerous and could be an issue a professional can guide you about how not to get in such a situation, without any problems.

The lint alone, if you will collect it from the pocket of your jeans or seams of your dress or clothing is not that flammable. It will become highly flammable if it is going to be inside an enclosed space which has e reduced airflow allowing the lint to be exposed to a gas exhaust. Once it is exposed to the gas exhaust and becomes hot, it will start to burn. In fact, a fire starter can be made at home by simply collecting the lint from the lint trap inside the dryer vent. All you need to do is just mix it with an ingredient that will make the fire in the lint burn longer, like a petroleum jelly.

Fire can be prevented if you are aware of the cause of it so you need to be familiar with combustible materials like the creosote and the lint. You should know what they looked like and how they are formed. You should also know the steps or the way to prevent their build ups, and to know where they are likely to build up. If you will be aware, then you will be safer and you can prevent fire from starting in your house.

There are a few reasons why lint can develop in the hoses. Bent hoses appear to the prime cause behind such deposition of lint. Apart from this, pests and condensation can even play a great role in the development of lint in the dryer. Ignoring lint in the dryer for a long time can become the prime cause for house fire. As per the reports, on most of the occasions, homeowners were not aware about the fact that lint was greatly positioned in the dryers. And due to this reason they came across fire hazards.

As lint is a highly combustible element, it needs to be cleaned properly. You have to do this work on a regular interval so that your dryer can stay in the best shape and your home can remain safe from a possible fire hazard. In this regard, taking help of a professional can even offer great result when you are seeking for a good use of the dryer on a long run.
