If you're using the BetterVent Indoor Dryer Vent, you're already ahead of the game when it comes to safety and indoor air quality. But to keep your system running at peak performance, it's important to understand how the BetterVent filters work — and how to maintain them properly.


The Dual-Filter System: How It Works

BetterVent uses a two-stage filtration system designed to catch lint, dust, and fine particles before they escape into your home.

🔹 Stainless Steel Mesh Pre-Filter

  • Captures larger lint and debris
  • Reusable and washable
  • Should be cleaned every few drying cycles

🔹 Polyester Secondary Filter

  • Traps fine dust and allergens
  • Replaceable
  • Replace every few weeks depending on dryer usage

This filter combo dramatically reduces the risk of airborne lint, protects your dryer, and keeps your laundry area clean.


Why Filters Are So Important

✔ Prevents lint buildup: One of the top causes of dryer fires
✔ Improves indoor air quality: Especially important in small or poorly ventilated rooms
✔ Extends dryer life: Better airflow = less strain on your dryer
Keeps your home cleaner: Less lint on your floors, walls, and air


Maintenance Tips

To keep your filters working effectively:

  • Clean the steel mesh filter every 2–3 loads
  • Replace the polyester filter every 6–12 loads
  • Vacuum around the dryer area regularly
  • ✅ Always inspect for signs of blockage or back-pressure
