The Consumer Products Safety Commission estimates there are 24,000 clothes dryer fires each year in the United States, amounting to $96,000,000 in estimated property damage.
There's a hidden danger spot in most homes today. Chances are you don't look at it or even think about it. It's the vent from your clothes dryer. Over time, it fills with lint that slips past your dryer's filter. Overheating results as the lint builds up, and then you're just a step away from a fire. Sound unlikely? Here are some alarming facts from a May 2003 report from the Consumer Product Safety Commission:
Over 15,000 clothes dryer fires occur each year
These dryer fires result in approximately 20 deaths, 370 injuries and over $75 million in property damage annually
The high-limit thermostat may prematurely fail when subjected to high ambient temperatures.
After a significant build up of debris in the dryer vent hose, the dryer overheats and the lint catches fire. Combustibles in the immediate vicinity then help fuel the fire.
