Any appliance that generates heat can be a potential fire hazard. There are over 24,000 clothes dryer fires each year in the United States, according to The Consumer Products Safety Commission. Most of these fires cause considerable property damage. The good news is that these types of fires are in many cases preventable. Remember these tips to operate your dryer safely. - Keep your dryer properly maintained. - Remove lint from the lint screen after every load. - Never dry synthetic material, like rubber, foam, or plastic in your dryer. - Never dry any material that has been in contact with flammable liquids, even after washing. - Get your dryer inspected if it is taking a long time to dry or is overheating.
