Older vents, more lint
Over the decades, vents sag, get crushed behind the dryer, and gather lint at every bend. Flexible foil duct, common in older installs, traps lint more easily than smooth metal duct. A restricted vent makes the dryer run hot, which can blow the thermal fuse and wear out the heating element or igniter. See dryer problems in older homes, foil vs rigid duct and the vent safety guide.
Common dryer problems in 75023
| What you notice | Often points to | Where to look |
|---|---|---|
| Takes two cycles to dry | A restricted vent run | Takes too long to dry |
| Runs, but no heat | A blown thermal fuse, often caused by the vent | How to test a thermal fuse |
| A hot cabinet or burning smell | Lint near a heat source | Smells like burning |
| Weak air at the outside hood | A clogged vent or hood | Vent cleaning |
How do I know whether my vent is the problem?
Run the dryer empty on high for ten minutes, then feel the air at the outside hood. Weak air means a restriction. If the air is strong and the dryer still drains slowly, a part such as a sensor or thermostat may be involved.
