Had a chat with a landlord yesterday that made me question everything I know about dryer vents
So I was pulling apart a dryer for a clogged vent last week in Denver. The landlord was watching me and said something like "you know that lint screen being clean doesn't matter if the vent run is over 20 feet with two 90s." He was right, I never really thought about the ductwork design before. I was just blaming bad cleaning habits when the real problem was the physical setup. Any of you guys found that vent length or bends cause more issues than people realize?

Yeah that 20 foot rule really opened my eyes too, it's wild how many problems come from the duct layout.
