Dryer fires cause  property damage, injuries and even deaths every year. 

Here are some tips to avoid a dryer fire:

• Clean and empty lint out of the exhaust pipe.
• Check closely for tears and rips in the filter.
• Never put any synthetic substances in the dryer.
• Only run a dryer when someone is home.
• If the dryer is gas-powered make sure it's routinely checked. 
• Keep things away from the dryer that could catch on fire.
