it is not so bad but evapourated water will build up in the dryer out pipe
There are many factors which need to be considered when determining how often one should clean a dryer vent. Most households should clean their dryer vent with a brush at least twice a year. The dryer vent should also be cleaned when drying time becomes noticeably longer than it has been previously.
The water is converted to water vapor and is carried out through the dryer vent by the air that flows through the machine.
You could fall off the dryer. If you are large, you could damage the dryer.
You close and cap the gas line, and disconnect the vent hose and electrical supply. Depending on the utility and/or code requirements in your area, you may be required to have a licensed plumber or utility mechanic do the actual capping of the gas line. Do NOT just close the valve, unless you intend to reinstall a dryer, but you still might need a licensed plumber. Check with your gas utility before proceeding.

Attached to the back of the dryer.
First, be sure to unplug your dryer, extend your dryer out, not too far though..just the length of your vent, unscrew your vent from the back of the dryer, then slowly slide the vent off. It's recommended at this point that you get some kind of vacuum cleaner, and insert it into the dryer hole. Afterwards, use your vacuum inside the vent tube, reattach the vent tube to the vent, push the dryer back to its position, and go about your day.
The motor is housed at the back of the hair dryer just behind the vent.
Unplug the dryer and unscrew the vent in the back of the dryer. Reach in and pull out as much of the lint as you can. Using a vacuum cleaner's extension and on a low setting clean out the rest of the lint inside the dryer.

Yes! Venting your dryer to the attic is a bad idea. The dryer vent carries all the wet, humid air from the clothes dryer, along with the fine lint and dust particles that made it past the dryer's lint filter.If the dryer vents to the attic, the attic will get coated over time with the lint, and the increased humidity from the wet air venting into the enclosed space makes ripe conditions for some serious mold growth.If there is no external wall near the dryer where you can vent it directly to the outdoors, extend the dryer vent through the attic to an external attic vent, so that it can vent to the outdoors.
