Product Description
Product Description
This is a genuine replacement part. The model number and name for the following item is: Gardus RLE202 Lint Eater 10-Piece Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning System.
Amazon.com
Product Description
The LintEater 10 Piece Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning System is designed for the homeowner by a leading manufacturer of commercial duct cleaning equipment and comes with everything needed to clean and regularly maintain the entire dryer exhaust venting system with professional results.How LintEater Works
Unlike typical manually operated vent brushes, the superior design of the LintEater Auger Brush allows both air and loosened lint to pass through the durable bristles for easy lint removal. The rotating action of the self-feeding Auger Brush and flexible rods scours the entire vent wall surface, while smoothly navigating the multiple twists and turns that are common in most exhaust vents.Easy to Use
The included adapters enable you to use the air from the clothes dryer, shop vacuum or electric blower to completely remove lint from the vent while rotary cleaning at the same time. The Operator's Manual has detailed, step-by-step instructions and illustrations covering many different cleaning situations, based on decades of professional experience and techniques.Multiple Uses
The Lint Brush will reach 42 inches when connected to one flexible rod – all the way to the bottom of your lint trap. The brush head is bendable to conform to tight spaces and works for both top and door mounted lint traps. The brush filaments are extremely durable and may be repeatedly washed to provide years of use. The exceptional reach makes it a snap to clean behind, underneath and all around your appliances. Use it to clean baseboard heating vents or connect several rods to clean ceiling fans, vertical blinds, cobwebs or any hard to reach areas around the home.The Blockage Removal Tool can be used to dislodge and clear animal and bird nests in the exhaust vent prior to rotary brushing and also clears debris from clogged gutter downspouts – without stepping foot on a ladder.
The optional 12 Foot Extension Rod Kit adds to the LintEater Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning System for exhaust vents longer than 12 feet. The optional LintCatcher captures loosened lint from the dryer vent while rotary brushing.
From the Manufacturer
The Gardus LintEater 10-Pc Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning System includes everything needed to clean and maintain the entire dryer vent exhaust system with professional results. Designed for homeowners by a leading manufacturer of professional duct cleaning equipment, the system includes four 36 inch long flexible rods that screw together and spin with a cordless drill (not included) to reach into vents up to 12 feet from one end; One self-feeding Auger Brush attaches to the rods and navigates multiple twists and turns to remove all lint from the exhaust vent; One 2.5 inch diameter Lint Brush with 42 inch length when connected to one rod reaches all the way to the bottom of lint traps, also cleans under appliances or other hard to reach areas around the home; One Blockage Removal Tool connects to rods to remove animal nests and heavy blockages in the vent or to clear debris from gutter downspouts; One Vacuum Adapter connects a shop vacuum to the vent from either side to remove the lint completely while rotary brushing; One Dryer/Blower Adapter enables you to use the air from the clothes dryer or electric blower to safely remove the lint if you don’t have a shop vacuum; One Operator’s Manual with illustrations and safety tips. LintEater effectively removes dangerous lint buildup in virtually all vent systems including metal, foil and white vinyl. The rotating action of the Auger Brush and flexible rods scours the entire vent wall surface, while negotiating the multiple turns common in most dryer vents. The included vacuum and blower adapters facilitate the complete removal of lint from the vent during the cleaning process. LintEater can clean vent runs over 50 feet in length successfully using one or more optional 12 Foot Extension Kits (sold separately).

Our vent pipe is 30 feet long, and a 90 degree bend 2/3 the way down! Well... that's where this AWESOME TOOL comes in! I was a bit nervous about it until I got it. This thing is made very well, and I had no issues with it at all. I followed the directions and MADE SURE that I - 1. Duct taped the joints 2. Made sure my drill was set to CLOCKWISE 3. Went slow and steady and didn't force anything. The directions are VERY important cause if you do not follow them, you could find yourself in trouble. I recommend that you have a 10 gallon shop vac with the 2" hose to help you with this job! The vac will help in declogging the pipe by sucking the lint as you loosen it. I could NOT BELIEVE how much lint came out of our pipes! I had to unclog the vac hose like 4 times because there was so much volume! Amazing to think that there was so much lint that it clogged up my 10 gallon pro shop vac 4 times!!! The MAIN THING is to GO SLOW! There's no need to put your drill on high. If you don't have a variable speed drill - I recommend you get one. You may get yourself into trouble if your drill only runs in super fast mode because should you run into a snag, you could break the rods inside your duct! Can you imagine that? Therefore... have the right tools for the job, and follow the directions to the letter, cause you don't want that to happen.
Due to our 30 foot run, I bought 2 kits rather than buy the extention set because to me, for a few bucks more, why not have extra brushes etc too? The tool assembles with ease and I LOVED the shop vac attachment tool it came with. It made this job sooooooo much easier.
Bottom Line - I love this tool! It did exactly what I wanted it to do, and it did it with ease, and sure beat paying someone to do it. I was completely done in about 1/2 hr, for a 30 foot pipe, and I have more airflow from our dryer than ever before! Take a look at some of the pics some people have posted with their lint because this is exactly what I experienced. I removed approx. 2 pounds of lint which is a considerable amount when you think about it. Our pipes are clean, and I can relax in the knowledge that we've increased the life of our new dryer exponentially, and removed the risk for a duct fire. Totally worth every cent to buy this tool in my book ;)
I was initially concerned that the system might be difficult to maneuver, but the rods are flexible enough to navigate bends and turns in the vent with ease. The included attachments, such as the lint brush and vacuum adapter, making cleaning even more efficient.
The only downside is that the system could be longer to reach longer vent runs. However, for the price and convenience, it is still an excellent value. I highly recommend the Gardus RLE202 LintEater Rotary Dryer Vent Cleaning System to anyone looking for an easy and effective way to clean their dryer vents.
Overall, I give this product a 4-star rating and will continue to use it to keep my dryer running smoothly and prevent potential hazards from lint buildup.
This will definitely make your dryer and refrigerator last longer.
