3/27/2020 (Permalink)
We go about our everyday lives in the safety of our own homes. But has one ever taken a moment to think about all the dangers that are actually in our homes?
Just take a brief moment and think about it. What is one of the most flammable things in a household? Depending on the household, this item is used once a week, multiple times a week, or even daily! It is rather bulky, it can hold a lot, sometimes it is noisy, and it cleans certain items in your household. (No it is not a dishwasher). It’s your laundry machine!
How is this possible?
The lint buildup in your dryers! The lint is so flammable that you can use it as a fire starter.
It is incredibly important that after every dryer use you clean the lint out and keep up to date with maintaining your dryer. In doing this, you can save yourself from being one of the 20,000 households a year that have fires from their dryers.
