Re: Fire at Pete's!!!
Everyone, make sure that you clean that lint up as frequently as you can. I remember when my brother and I would burn trash. We would search for the dryer lint because we would be sure of a fire if we could light a match. Make sure that whoever is doing the laundry cleans that lint trap EVERY time. I also learned that dryer sheets are bad news as well. They will actually coat the screen on that lint trap so that you can actually hold water! I knew doing laundry was dangerous, but.....
 Pete, Sorry to hear about that. Take care of yourself.

Re: Fire at Pete's!!!
Glad you guys are ok Pete! As a long time plumber I have seen that a few times. If you read the dryer installation sheet it usually say's the warranty is void if you use a plastic vent. Always use hard metal vent and keep it cleaned out. You would be amazed at how many we find that are plugged with wet nasty 20 year old lint. (The guys always keep the loose change
 ) Was yours gas or electric?
