Improper dryer venting through corrugated plastic material can result in a fire hazard in your home.  When performing a home insection it is important that the home inspector determine that the proper dryer venting has been installed.  Your dryer should be vented through the proper materials to prevent fires.  Appliance manufacturers recommend solid metal smooth bore dryer venting.  Take some time at least once a year to make sure that the venting is unobstructed and free of built up lint.

Rick did a great job inspecting my new condo. He was very friendly and thorough. He did a great job explaining things to me and letting me know what I needed to know. I would  highly recommend him.
