Dryer Vents Covered in snow

With the snow coming, it might be a good time to talk about dryer vents. I'm sure not many people are thinking about keeping their dryer vents clear. What's the point, the heat will melt the snow, right? Maybe.....

Did you know a blocked vent for a gas dryer will not allow any carbon monoxide to escape, potentially creating a hazardous to lethal condition in your home? It's a good idea to install a carbon monoxide alarm near gas appliances.

Did you know a blocked dryer vent increases the lint buildup in the duct increasing the risk of a fire?

Did you know a blocked dryer vent does not allow the moisture to escape, keeping the dryer running longer, using more energy?
