Hy-c RLE202 Linteater Dryer Vent Cleaning Kit 10 Piece

Product Description

The HY-C RLE202 LintEater is a 10-piece dryer vent cleaning system designed to clear lint buildup from residential dryer exhaust vents up to 12 feet in length. The kit centers on a self-feeding 4-inch auger brush that navigates multiple bends in the duct path, paired with a blockage removal tool for heavy obstructions. Four flexible rods, each 36 inches long, thread together to build reach as needed. A vacuum adaptor connects to a standard shop vac or blower vac so lint is extracted during rotary brushing rather than pushed deeper into the line. HVAC technicians, appliance service pros, and maintenance staff use this kit to restore proper airflow and reduce dryer fire risk.

The RLE202 is suited for residential dryer vent maintenance in single-family and multi-unit settings. The included 2.5-inch diameter lint brush with 42 inches of reach handles straight duct runs, while the auger brush manages curved and offset vent paths. The blockage removal tool doubles for clearing gutters and downspouts, extending the utility of the kit beyond dryer-vent service alone. No power tools are required — rods are hand-driven through a standard drill chuck or by hand rotation.

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard residential dryer exhaust vent systems. The vacuum adaptor is compatible with common shop vac and blower vac connections. Verify duct diameter before selecting brushes to confirm fitment.

Installation Notes

Disconnect the dryer from its power source and detach the exhaust duct before beginning vent cleaning. A licensed appliance technician or qualified HVAC service professional should perform this work when ductwork is inaccessible or when significant blockage is present. Insert rods from the exterior vent termination or the interior duct collar, adding sections as needed to reach the full vent length. Connect the vacuum adaptor during brushing to contain loose lint and reduce cleanup.
