What do you get when you clean a dryer vent with a $40* 200mph electric leaf blower?

(My wife and I were cleaning out our dryer vent with a vent cleaning kit and not getting much out, so we were standing there thinking of options. I said that it was too bad that the Dyson won't pull out enough and wouldn't it be nice if we had something more powerful than a hairdryer. Then my wonderful wife asked, don't we have a leafblower? Genius!)

*Ours is a $70 model that also mulches leaves, but I saw a $40 model at Home Depot that is just a leaf blower.

  • Good advice everyone. Our vent is about 8-10ft long and has sharp curves so we couldn't get a vent snake very far. We will try our best to watch for clogging and build-up.

  • back it up...WHOOP:p

  • Forget the dryer as much as possible and use a clothesline. Clotheslines haven't been known to burn down houses.

  • use a rotary brush and or long bendable rod to dislodge some of the hard lint, along with the blower or vacuum

  • That is an excellent idea!

  • AWESOME. now THAT is how you clean a dryer vent.

  • Nice, now if only you could do that to the entire duct system!

  • a big mess, and a clean dryer vent !!! thumbs up... .was worth watching, definitely!!!

  • Connecting the hose of your shop-vac to its back exhaust at full power also does the trick as long as there is not much lint accumulated. In that case you will need to loosen it with a flexible long brush that is sold for that purpose, and then apply the shop-vac. Repeat es needed.

  • @beltrams Yeah, but dryers work when its raining and birds don't tend to crap on them :) LOL!

  • Now thats how you clean the dryer vent!
