Local dryer vent service
Baldwin County's humid air makes packed lint worse.
Lint is fuel. Heat is ignition. The vent is where they meet. On the Gulf Coast, humid air and salt exposure add to the problem: damp lint packs tighter, exterior flappers corrode and stick, and long runs in slab and raised coastal homes trap more than you would expect. Every load pushes lint into the duct, airflow drops, dry times stretch and the dryer runs hotter — with packed lint sitting beside the heat source.
