The lint screen is only the first defense
A lint screen captures a large amount of material, but some lint moves into the vent line. Bends, long runs, crushed transitions, and blocked exterior covers can make that material accumulate faster.
Las Vegas dust can also collect around exterior terminations and combine with lint near the end of the vent path.
Restricted airflow changes dryer performance
When hot moist air cannot leave efficiently, loads take longer to dry and the appliance may run hotter. Repeated cycles increase energy use and place more wear on the dryer.
A hot laundry room, unusually hot clothing, or a vent hood that barely opens during operation can signal restriction.
Professional cleaning follows the full path
A useful service checks the connection behind the dryer, the accessible vent run, and the exterior termination. Cleaning only the first few feet may leave the main blockage untouched.
The technician should also identify crushed hoses, disconnected sections, or damaged covers that cleaning cannot repair.
Act quickly around urgent warning signs
Stop using the dryer if you notice a burning smell or another sign of overheating. Arrange an inspection before running another cycle.
