Less than an hour later her neighbors called the fire department because her house was on fire. It was caused by a lint-clog in her dryer vent. I was young at the time, but have never forgotten it.

I’ll leave you with these verses… “that if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:9-13 KJV “And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:13 KJV God Bless you and may The Lord Jesus guide you and teach you as you live your life. I pray he does and you let him guide you. Amen.
I’m a Merchant Marine engineer and I cleaned a dryer vent on a ship once that was so clogged I had to use a plumbers power auger to remove the lent, as it was salt infused. The dryer vent pipe was 32 feet long and had a few 90 degree turns. It was crazy how much lent was in the dryer vent.

Static electricity at that... lightning hit one side of Momma house and and sparked a major fire under the laundry room floor boards here in Atlanta 7-28-2024
Thank God whomever owned / owns that house went and cleaned that vent. I know someone whose house burned down because of all that stuff in the vent and not cleaning it out. She went to dry a load of laundry, and that stuff in the vent caught fire and there went the house. Thankfully, she and her husband had full coverage on the homeowners insurance, so the house got rebuilt, but honestly, it scared my mom and I so badly, hearing that story, that we are super careful about that now. We always try to vacuum out as much as we can so we don't loose the house to a fire.
@@unseelie63 an overwhelming number of ship board fires are dyer fires. BTW statistics tell up if a fire is not put out by the crew member who found it, 80% of the time the ship is lost! Crazy to think about that. I have personally found two fires while on duty in 16 years, I got both fires put out within a few seconds, they were small fires. Scary all the same.
Linitipede.....Definition: the dreaded lint creature that inhabits dryer tubes when people don't clean them....deadly to houses when they catch fire. But, good news.....they are removeable.
These people are allowed to live amongst us. You could be the most responsible person in the world living in an apartment & your next door neighbor might be a ticking house fire.
And to make matters worse, apartment complexes usually ignore this service! They usually find more value in things that are aesthetic, not taking care of the real issues.
Yeah, they are among us. Not just with dryer lint, but other boneheaded things. Like bbq fires. My neighbor uses so much starter fluid i can smell it, in my house, from fourth ft away. And, has to make sure with extra starter, that its blazing at least two ft high when he puts the meat on. Do not understand why they don't get sick. Also dumps the coals onto semi dry grass clippings. Started a ragging fire once with his wood fence the victim. Dummies are everywhere.
My apartments are really good about having people who clean the lint 2-3 times a year. We’re also not allowed to have grills. They test fire extinguishers frequently. It just depends on where you live.
@@lintawayductcleaning we do it like that because that's what corporate wants. By the way, I clean them from end to end and then inspect it with my camera to make sure nothing's left. Good luck being a pro duct cleaner. You mom must be proud.
This is probably what ours looked like at our old house. We rented and our dryer had never been cleaned out. We asked for a new washer and dryer because they hadn’t been working right. They were OLD. Our “landlord’s” handyman came out. He checked the dryer vent and said we were so lucky the house hadn’t caught on fire. No one ever came by again and we got a “letter” in the mail stating our “lease” was being terminated. So glad we bought a house. Dude was such a slumlord.
When my husband and I moved into our house, it was hard to get anything dry in one cycle. Whoever installed the previous vent tubing must have been an amateur handyman because the tubing had so many convoluted twists and turns to get outside. My husband replaced the tubing in a more direct manner and found the lint in the old tube to be almost as bad as above. Fortunately, the dryer we have now had a lint indicator. As soon as it shows some blockage, my husband brings out his drill and vent brushes.
Not really, I have repaired a few dryers and they were absolutely full off this stuff when taken apart, all over the control board, motor, heater. I was also surprised how those didn’t catch a fire, but surprisingly they don’t🤷♂️
This reminds me of my older sister. She graduated hs with a 4.0 gpa, scored very high on her ACT…and in 4 years never once cleaned out her dryer lint trap. She paid a repair man to come fix her “broken” dryer and he said he had never seen a dryer that clogged. She would run the dryer 4 or 5 times per load to get clothes dry.

@pascalswager9100 certainly the dryers have screens for lint but some gets through to the vent line and builds up over time. It's a very easy (might even say fun) activity that takes about 5-10 minutes a few times a year depending on how much you dry.
@@benborah1264 So bizarre to Me lol, we don't have them in Oz at all, a lot of people don't even have dryers, I don't. We use the good old clothes line, even in winter (which it is right now) kids use them as a merry-go-round. I seen a thing in the skirting boards that suck away the dust you sweep, instead of a dustpan..... super trippy 😊
I remember I worked at a spa and literally told them to make sure to tell everybody to clean the dryer lint trays AND ask maintenance to clean the vents…nobody listened. I was getting ready for work one morning and as soon as I was almost there, got a phone call from the manager saying there was a fire in the spa…
I hate it!! Unfortunately with condos and townhouses it appears to be standard. I would think it would be better to route it under the floor to the outside.
That happened at work. They had originally routed it up, around & out & after it started smoking (and we clean it out monthly... & the lint trap with every load), they rerouted it along the floor & out. Fewer turns, no fight with gravity & they used a smooth walled tube. No problems since.
After an hour, my clothes in the dryer were still wet. My handyman took the dryer apart and hidden behind a heat shield was a fan. Between each blade was a collection of lint. It was enough to fill a three gallon bucket.
I’m curious too. What kind of vacuum was that? It looked like the hose for the dryer vent. But unbelievable. I’m actually going to be doing this tonight.
it you see this coming out of your dryer line your lucky to be alive and not dead in a fire because that is a fire hazard this is how house fires start every year from this kind of dirty build up in lines like this so get your dryer line cleaned regularly the lives you save could be your own and your family
I agree. Mine is directly next to an exterior wall, all I have to clean is the hose and never the inside of the dryer cause I do it very often. These interior ones have to be a pain in the ass.
Maybe just use a modern heatpump drier that dont need pipe at all? Cannot even imagine how much energy this primitive tech needs...the hot air just go out into the air..
This was so satisfying to watch🤭🤭🤭I scheduled an appointment to have someone come out tomorrow to do this, because it’s been taking over 3 hours to dry one load🥺🥺🥺
People don’t realize just how flammable that dryer lint is! I was on a remodel and in the living room there was a old water spot and a patch where the Sheetrock had been cut out. Above that was the laundry room. I ask the homeowner if I could cut that patch open to have a look and she was going to have it done anyway. So I cut open the ceiling and low and behold there was a dryer vent 90 right there. And guess what wrapped around that 90’ A diaper!!! So I called her to take a look and while she was in route I broke apart the vent line and it was packed, maybe a golf ball size hole was left. So I showed her what was going on with the diaper. That vent was in a flooring joist chase going out the back of the house, where that vent went through the wall it wasn’t insulated causing the vent to sweat during the winter months. It was winter at the time and you could feel the draft coming from the vent exiting. I also took her outside and explained to her that the dryer must be cleaned period or this might happen. I took out my lighter and just with one flick that lint ignited instantly!! She looked at me and said oh my lord I have three more units in here I have renovated and have leased out. I told her to call a vent cleaner and ask for a bundle deal since she had four units. She was and still is a great customer!
Omg 😳 I'm surprised the dryer hasn't packed up or over heated. Every year we fetch our tumble dryer top off & it's vacuumed out inside & the vent kept clear from outside.
I literally just finished checking the hose between the wall and put dryer after seeing the thumbnail. As far as I can tell, it's clear after 3 years since our last cleaning.
Cleaning the lint trap in the dryer was probably all they did. So many ppl don't know they also still have to clean out the silver hose & the hole in the wall it's connected to.
I feel there are people in this world who just don’t grasp how important it is to clean out your lint vent and trap. Please people, clean your vents and traps! Don’t nobody wanna see you die. Be safe out there y’all. Love n peace.
Not every house have vent and traps.. In my country there is no one who use that.. We all use rops and sun to dry our clothes.. I am from Mauritius 🇲🇺 by the way.. The best island in the entire world with everything available..
@@neverbeganformeit reduces drying time, puts wear on your dryer as it takes longer to finish a load of laundry. gas bills and electric will go up as what can take 30 minutes on high suddenly becomes 2-3 hours. also there’s the risk of the lint catching fire from the heat.
Friend of mine had a house at the Jersey shore with the same issue. He said the dryer would take hours to dry a load of clothes. I pulled the vent hose off a pushed out what you saw in this video but probably twice the length. How the dryer still worked was the amazing part
When you think about it, it’s kind of crazy that we would ever run any appliance when we aren’t home. Given the incidence of dryer fires, clogged dishwashers, and burst hoses on washing machines, it doesn’t really make sense.
@@aliannarodriguez1581my friend was looking for a new washer. The salesman says, “this one is great, you can start it with your phone when you’re not home!”. Not our idea of a sales point!
@@Chris.hack.things really. Whatever happened to comon sense. Leaving the iron on and walking away, dishwasher, etc. Electrical fires happen too easily. Accidents can be avoided with simple maintenance and caution. My step dad even made a checklist and noted dates on maintainance of virtually everything, from smoke detectors battery replacement to fridge coil cleaning. People made fun of him but he kept things going. Fridge lasted over twenty years, till i let my son and family live here for two years. Grandma's fridge gave up few months after i moved back in. Tried to vacuum it out but it struggled. Common sense saves overall.
This makes me think back to the computer silk that my old notebook made on the radiator. It was about 10cm*2cm of solid piece of dust so packed and interwoven that it genuinely held together. I'm so glad dust filters exist for my big PC
If you have a roof vent (some call it by "gooseneck" in it's style), you MUST make sure it gets cleaned and inspected. There is a metal grid that a lot of installers leave in to keep critters out. This was left in mine, and when the cleaner checked, it was a 2" thick mat of compressed lint. Very lucky I didn't have a fire.
У моих родственников таким образом однажды во время ремонта высыпалось оттуда почти ведро окурков, а живут они на третьем этаже пятиэтажки. Мы все в шоке были!

After an hour, my clothes in the dryer were still wet. My handyman took the dryer apart and hidden behind a heat shield was a fan. Between each blade was a collection of lint. It was enough to fill a three gallon bucket.
Therapist: Dryer Vent Snake isn't real. It can't hurt you.

Wow, what kind of vacuum was that. That was satisfying to watch.
Disgusting, yet weirdly satisfying lol
I’m curious too. What kind of vacuum was that? It looked like the hose for the dryer vent. But unbelievable. I’m actually going to be doing this tonight.
Dryer lint is a big time fire hazard, I know a couple that lost their house due to dryer lint! It burnt to the ground! That’s why I got mine cleaned!
It's a dead lint snake 🐍
Unbelievable, and how dangerous! 😮😮
I love vacuuming out the back and underneath the dryer.....and the hose, etc. Oddly satisfying!
it you see this coming out of your dryer line your lucky to be alive and not dead in a fire because that is a fire hazard this is how house fires start every year from this kind of dirty build up in lines like this so get your dryer line cleaned regularly the lives you save could be your own and your family
I started to hold my breathe mid video
No way! That house would’ve burned down! I’ve never seen lint buildup like this and it’s scary!
This is why builders should be required to install dryers only against exterior walls so there is no long vent lines snaking through your house.
Our vent is about 2 feet long because the laundry room has only the outside wall to go through.
I agree. Mine is directly next to an exterior wall, all I have to clean is the hose and never the inside of the dryer cause I do it very often. These interior ones have to be a pain in the ass.
Tell that to the people that live in the two story homes with the laundry room up there XD.
@@ellieysama I don't understand what you mean? Second floors of buildings have exterior walls too...
Maybe just use a modern heatpump drier that dont need pipe at all? Cannot even imagine how much energy this primitive tech needs...the hot air just go out into the air..
This was so satisfying to watch🤭🤭🤭I scheduled an appointment to have someone come out tomorrow to do this, because it’s been taking over 3 hours to dry one load🥺🥺🥺
Is it me or does it look satisfying to watch? all lint/dust/ other debris all pulled out cleaned !
My asthma is making me weezy just looking at this
SAME
Unfortunately I know exactly what you mean
I call bullshit. This would’ve caught on fire long ago..
I am surprised there wasn't a fire.
This is the dryer vent of people who don't know what a dryer vent is.
One of the best things you can do to prevent a house fire!
Videos like this help me feel better about being too poor for a dryer 😂
Watching this makes my eyes and nose itch 💯
It’s amazing their house didn’t burn down with that build up. Thanks for saving them.
People don’t realize just how flammable that dryer lint is! I was on a remodel and in the living room there was a old water spot and a patch where the Sheetrock had been cut out. Above that was the laundry room. I ask the homeowner if I could cut that patch open to have a look and she was going to have it done anyway. So I cut open the ceiling and low and behold there was a dryer vent 90 right there. And guess what wrapped around that 90’ A diaper!!! So I called her to take a look and while she was in route I broke apart the vent line and it was packed, maybe a golf ball size hole was left. So I showed her what was going on with the diaper. That vent was in a flooring joist chase going out the back of the house, where that vent went through the wall it wasn’t insulated causing the vent to sweat during the winter months. It was winter at the time and you could feel the draft coming from the vent exiting. I also took her outside and explained to her that the dryer must be cleaned period or this might happen. I took out my lighter and just with one flick that lint ignited instantly!! She looked at me and said oh my lord I have three more units in here I have renovated and have leased out. I told her to call a vent cleaner and ask for a bundle deal since she had four units. She was and still is a great customer!
I couldn't stop laughing looking at this video. This is hilarious😂
I don’t know why I find this so satisfying to watch 😂
That lint coming out like that looks like the dryer had Taco Bell the day before 🔥 😂
This reminds me of the scene from the 2000 Grinch film where the Grinch takes that huge hose and just starts sucking everything up. Lol
Why is this so satisfying to me to watch...
If you think you feel satisfied, imagine how great the vent feels now.
Omg 😳 I'm surprised the dryer hasn't packed up or over heated.
Every year we fetch our tumble dryer top off & it's vacuumed out inside & the vent kept clear from outside.
How the hell did that house not burn down seriously
I need this to clean up after my toddler 😂
😂😂😂❤
That vent hasn't been cleaned out since 1867😂
I literally just finished checking the hose between the wall and put dryer after seeing the thumbnail.
As far as I can tell, it's clear after 3 years since our last cleaning.
They are so Lucy their house didn’t burn down.😮 clean the lint from the dryer filter every time you dry clothes! It’s imperative
Cleaning the lint trap in the dryer was probably all they did. So many ppl don't know they also still have to clean out the silver hose & the hole in the wall it's connected to.
@@mixiperez6833I was today years old when I learned this. Brb...
Same 😳@@wesewpro
My eyes are watering and my nose is itching just by watching
Someone was running thier dryer without the lint screen installed.
Put that thing in a museum
Wow! This makes me feel like I need to sneeze right now!🤧
I feel there are people in this world who just don’t grasp how important it is to clean out your lint vent and trap. Please people, clean your vents and traps! Don’t nobody wanna see you die. Be safe out there y’all. Love n peace.
no
There's people in the world that don't grasp how important cleaning is, in general
Why do you have to clean your lint vent?
Not every house have vent and traps.. In my country there is no one who use that.. We all use rops and sun to dry our clothes..
I am from Mauritius 🇲🇺 by the way..
The best island in the entire world with everything available..
@@neverbeganformeit reduces drying time, puts wear on your dryer as it takes longer to finish a load of laundry. gas bills and electric will go up as what can take 30 minutes on high suddenly becomes 2-3 hours. also there’s the risk of the lint catching fire from the heat.
So crazy to think that average 35% of home fires starts with that dusty lint in the dryer vent.
Aaachoo! I could feel that sneeze coming on! Nice work! 👏
As weirdly satisfying this is... I did sneeze a few times😂😂😂
That's got to be a Guinness World Record🐍
just watching this makes the inside my nose tingle
What a fire hazard that is…. Amazing it didn’t start a fire…..
Friend of mine had a house at the Jersey shore with the same issue. He said the dryer would take hours to dry a load of clothes. I pulled the vent hose off a pushed out what you saw in this video but probably twice the length. How the dryer still worked was the amazing part
I’m in insurance and can’t tell you how many times houses burn down because of that. Probably not even that bad either…
Than you for that fact! Keep preaching it!
That is a great reminder! Thanks!
People think I'm weird for only running my dryer on low, and never running it when I leave
Nope....that's the smart thing to do. I also run it on low and don't leave it going when I leave the house.
When you think about it, it’s kind of crazy that we would ever run any appliance when we aren’t home. Given the incidence of dryer fires, clogged dishwashers, and burst hoses on washing machines, it doesn’t really make sense.
@@aliannarodriguez1581my friend was looking for a new washer. The salesman says, “this one is great, you can start it with your phone when you’re not home!”. Not our idea of a sales point!
I'd like to think gas appliances are the most dangerous. If an unnoticed gas leak happens, say goodbye to the whole house 🏠
@@Chris.hack.things really. Whatever happened to comon sense. Leaving the iron on and walking away, dishwasher, etc. Electrical fires happen too easily. Accidents can be avoided with simple maintenance and caution. My step dad even made a checklist and noted dates on maintainance of virtually everything, from smoke detectors battery replacement to fridge coil cleaning. People made fun of him but he kept things going. Fridge lasted over twenty years, till i let my son and family live here for two years. Grandma's fridge gave up few months after i moved back in. Tried to vacuum it out but it struggled. Common sense saves overall.
From the thumbnail I’d thought that was a cat’s tail 😂
When they pulled out the big lint snake I heard Steve Irwin voice over 😂
Crickey she’s a big one. Just look at ‘er. Nevah see ‘notha one like at I tell ya.
"Isn't she a beauty?!"
This makes me think back to the computer silk that my old notebook made on the radiator. It was about 10cm*2cm of solid piece of dust so packed and interwoven that it genuinely held together. I'm so glad dust filters exist for my big PC
If you have a roof vent (some call it by "gooseneck" in it's style), you MUST make sure it gets cleaned and inspected. There is a metal grid that a lot of installers leave in to keep critters out. This was left in mine, and when the cleaner checked, it was a 2" thick mat of compressed lint. Very lucky I didn't have a fire.
I had to cover my nose
95N mask is must for this.
I sneezed just watching this video
I coughed watching this 😂😂
У моих родственников таким образом однажды во время ремонта высыпалось оттуда почти ведро окурков, а живут они на третьем этаже пятиэтажки. Мы все в шоке были!
