“What actually is FlowSense?”

1-4 of 4 Answers

• FlowSense is LG's marketing name for a sensor that detects blockage in the dryer vent. In other words, if your vent tubing becomes filled with lint in sufficient quantity that it creates enough backpressure, the sensor will detect the airflow restriction and give you an alarm. It is a good idea to take your dryer vent piping apart every two years and vacuum out and/or brush the lint from the tubing. Depending on the age of the dryer, the amount of lint and the temperature setting you can have a fire in ducting.

• The Flow Sense™ duct blockage sensing system detects and alerts you to restrictions in the installed household ductwork that reduce exhaust airflow through the dryer. ^Daphane

• FlowSense purports to monitor the maintenance of a safe, unobstructed vent airflow from the dryer. It warns (alarm or displayed front panel code) of dangerous degrees of blockage of the vent---which could cause a fire or burned laundry.
