I check/clean the filter before I start every single load. My husband cleans the vent system out once a month.

Every load. It's because I'm cheap. Your dryer will take longer to dry the clothes if the filter is full.

I try to do every load but every other is probably more realistic

I check it before every load, but only clean it when necessary. Usually ever other load is about how often I clean it.

I clean it EVERY time I start the dryer...which sometimes is more then every load (if I have to restart it because it isn't quite dry yet or has sat there and needs to be fluffed up).

After every load, just the surface area clean on the filter, not the deep down in the dryer kind of cleaning.

The filter screen...every time.

The tubing to outside, my husband does it a couple times a year...whenever I notice that it's taking longer to dry stuff.

I must have seriously linty clothes...if I didn't clean it every time, they would never dry!

My dyer reminds me to or else I would forget. I clean it with every load.

The filter screen eery load.

I haven't done the exhaust tubing. After reading the other thread about a dryer fire I will do that before the next load goes in.
