The repairman went<br />> to the dryer and pulled<br />> out the lint filter. It was clean. We always<br />> clean the lint from the<br />> filter after every load of clothes.<br />><br />><br />><br />><br />> He told us that he wanted to show us something. He<br />> took the filter over to<br />> the sink, and ran hot water over it.<br />><br />> I am sure you know what your dryer's lint filter<br />> looks like. WELL...the hot<br />> water just sat on top of the screen! It did not go<br />> through it at all!<br />><br />> He told us that dryer sheets cause a waxy film to<br />> build up over the screen,<br />> and this does not let the air pass through, so the<br />> heating unit overheats and<br />> burns out.<br />><br />> You cannot SEE the film, but it's there. This is<br />> also what causes dryer's<br />> to catch fire, and potentially burn your house down<br />> with it!<br />><br />> He said the best way to keep your dryer working for<br />> a very long time (and to<br />> keep your electric bill lower because your clothes<br />> will dry faster), is to<br />> clean that filter after every load, and wash it<br />> with hot soapy water with an<br />> old toothbrush (or other brush) every three months.<br />> He said that makes the life of the dryer at least<br />> twice as long!<br />><br />> How about that! Learn something new everyday!<br />><br />> I certainly didn't know dryer sheets would do that.<br />> So, I thought I'd share!<br />><br />> NOTE: I went to my dryer & tested my screen by<br />> running water on it. The<br />> water ran thru a little bit but mostly collected all<br />> the water in the mesh<br />> screen. I washed it with warm soapy water & a nylon<br />> brush & I had it done in 30<br />> seconds. Then when I rinsed it the water ran right<br />> thru the screen! There<br />> wasn't any puddle of water at all!<br />><br />> That repairman knew what he was talking about!<br />><br />> PLEASE PASS THIS ON TO OTHER PEOPLE IN YOUR ADDRESS<br />> BOOK. NOT ONLY COULD IT<br />> SAVE SOMEONE'S HOME, BUT IT COULD SAVE SOMEONE'S<br />> LIFE<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4176147902020038301-1635302447335072584?l=vericlee.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>V.
