How It Works
The LintAlert measures the back pressure in your dryer vent that can be caused by normal lint accumulation in the dryer duct,
a kinked or crushed exhaust hose or a blockage in the termination hood.
As the back pressure changes, the Lint Alert sensor's LED interface changes from green, to yellow, and then red as pressure becomes
more problematic. Optimal performance is shown with a single green indicator glowing. As airflow naturally becomes restricted
over time, the second, then third green indicator will illuminate. This is a good time to clean the dryer and duct system for
best energy efficiency and safety. In the event the system is not cleaned at that point, the yellow and red indicators will
eventually illuminate. Once pressure becomes dangerous (or there is a sudden obstruction) all LEDs flash in unison and an audio
alarm sounds.
