Customers Are Loving This Dryer Vent Cleaning Kit
By CARRIE BRADON
When your dryer isn’t performing as well and it’s time to clear out the built-up lint and debris in the vent, Everbilt's Dryer Vent Cleaning Kit from Home Depot comes highly rated.
For just $26.40, the kit comes with a 4-inch wide brush head designed to fit perfectly inside dryer vents. It also has six 2-foot rods that can be connected to extend its reach.
The kit has hundreds of positive reviews, with customers confirming the flexible rods reach easily into winding vents to effectively remove lint and significantly reduce dry time.
Whether used manually or connected to a drill for more power, the brush dislodges the debris and sweeps it out when you pull out the brush. You can then vacuum or sweep it up.
While this kit is designed for use in long dryer vents, avoid creating a fire hazard by making sure you can access both ends of the vent, or use a leaf blower to force debris out.
