Please see the Chimney and Dryer Vent Resolution

Key points:

Cleaning of the dryer vents shall include the removal of all lint, birds, nests, vermin, and other obstructions in and around the vent/duct from the point where the vent/duct reaches a common element main line or exterior of the building through the point of entry into the Unit.

The inspection and cleaning of dryer vents must be done from both ends of the vent-from where the vent attaches to the dryer, and from where the vent/duct reaches a common element main line or the exterior of the building.

If a Unit Owner notifies the Association that he or she does not have a fireplace and/or chimney, that Unit Owner must provide the Association with physical access to the Unit to verify that there is no fireplace and/or chimney. No Unit Owner may avoid the biannual cleaning and inspection by claiming that he/she does not use his/her fireplace and/or chimney.
