Finally! An easy way
to check Whirlpool & Kenmore dryer vent airflow!
(Works on Whirlpool,
Kenmore, Kitchenaid, Roper, and Estate dryers made by Whirlpool Corp,
including both 29" and 27" wide models. I'm hoping other
manufacturers take the hint and engineer something similar for their
machines!)
After
telling folks for years to "go outside and check for good, strong
airflow out your dryer's vent hood", there's finally a simple tool
that'll tell you for sure whether it's RIGHT!
The
problem has been, of course, that what may feel "good and
strong" to one person may actually be way too little airflow for a
dryer to breathe. And as we've discussed before, all the heat inside a
dryer is worthless without a generous supply of airflow through its vent
system.
Anyway,
here's a little tool that Whirlpool engineers have come up with to help you tell
for sure when it's time to clean out that vent (and probably the inside
of the dryer, too).
This
is a simple, specifically sized plastic card that you hang inside your dryer drum
(complete instructions are included), then run it 3 times, empty.
If
the dryer's airflow is strong enough to pull the card off the hook,
everything's fine. If it stays on the hook, you're headed for trouble,
and need to get out the old shop vac.

I
deal with poor dryer airflow problems constantly, and thought you'd benefit from one
of these. Cost for the kit is only $6.00, plus $5.00 Priority shipping &
handling to any USA address,
$11.00 to your door - in about 2 days! (Would you spend a measly 11 bucks to save a
service call - and possibly your house? I sure would!)
(You
don't need a Paypal account to pay with your credit card)
If you'd rather order by another method,
live outside the US, or have any questions, please feel free to contact me
Thank
you!
