A few days ago I posted about dryer vents and their potential to cause house fires. Well, this morning I opened up the paper and read this:
A barking dog alerted a sleeping family to the fire that had started in their dryer vent.
Folks, please take a few minutes to clean the accumulated lint from your dryer vent. This family was thankfully not injured, but they are facing $20,000 in repair costs.
