What Heathrow does
to a dryer.

Detached houses make up about 67 percent of its housing and buildings of 20 or more units about 11 percent.

About 6 percent of occupied homes there heat with utility gas.

The official weather station at Orlando Sanford International Airport, in the same county, averages about 133 days a year with measurable rain under the 1991–2020 normals.

Gated communities

Community landscaping standards can hide dryer vent hoods behind shrubs or under decorative trim, which keeps them tidy and also easy to forget. A hood that exhausts into a planting bed collects debris and moisture quickly.

Newer developments

As a development ages, its original dryers and vents reach the stage where lint buildup, worn rollers and tired thermal fuses appear together, and a single visit can deal with the machine and the duct at once.

Pool and beach towels

Homes built around outdoor living send a steady stream of pool and beach towels through the dryer. Those loads are heavy and gritty, and sand or grass that slips past the lint screen ends up in the drum seals and the vent.
