Does your Washer Dryer Combo unit not dry as well as before? I'm going to show you how I perform a Combo / Stackable Dryer Lint Cleaning. This will help prevent Dryer Fire Hazard and increase your awareness of Preventing Fires. Anywhere lint can build up will reduce the heated airflow in your dryer and reduce its overall efficiency and end up costing you more of your hard-earned money in the long run. So it is a good idea to do this procedure every so often as well as clean your lint screen in between each dryer load to keep potential fires at a minimum and keep efficiency at a maximum. I needed a simple #2 Philips screwdriver, a small flat screwdriver a brush, and a vacuum with a crevice tool. Anyone can perform this simple maintenance procedure on your combo unit. It will not only help prevent fires but also improve the drying efficiency of your dryer. I find that combo washer dryer units are easy to clean because you only need to remove the access panels and not part of the cabinet. This allows for quick cleaning by simply removing a few screws, popping out a few screens, vacuuming, or brushing the lint to free it up to remove it. I do not show how to clean dryer vents lines but if this is something you would like to see please let me a comment below and I'll work on a video for that.
