手術

The RAEFLOW Dryer Vent Cover operates automatically with your dryer. Its innovative design ensures efficient exhaust while maintaining a sealed exterior when not in use.

  • During Dryer Operation: When your dryer is running, the hot air pressure pushes the internal floating cup upwards. This opens the vent, allowing air and lint to be expelled efficiently.
  • When Dryer is Off: Once the dryer stops, the airflow ceases, and the floating cup returns to its resting position. This action seals the vent, preventing cold or hot air from entering your home and blocking unwanted pests.

  2. Cleaning the Floating Cup: Periodically remove the floating cup and clean any accumulated lint or debris from both the cup and the interior of the vent housing.
  3. 再組み立て: Once cleaned, place the floating cup back into its position and close the top lid securely.
