Did you know that clothing dryers are the cause of approximately 2,900 house fires per year? According to the United States Fire Administration (USFA), it's true. While you probably think you're in the clear because you clean the lint trap with every laundry load, you're still at harm. It's crucial to clean the dryer vent ductwork annually to prevent hazardous buildups. With spring cleaning on many people's to-do lists, it's the perfect time to address this often-overlooked fire risk, and Amazon Canada has a solution: the Sealegend Dryer Vent Cleaner Kit. This handy tool is currently on sale for under $20 — and it's a small price to pay to protect your home against a potential disaster.
