can the vent hose catch on fire ? null

No, this vent hose in made of aluminum, aluminum starts to melt at 1100 deg. F. If the lint builds up inside, the lint could catch on fire

It's made of metal. Hard to burn.

Of course it can. It's a basic dryer vent and lint could collect in it and eventually catch fire

The vent hose is flex metal so it shouldn't catch fire. If you don't clean the vent annually, lint could reduce drying performance and cause higher power bills. Fire is unlikely.

I would think it would if it’s stopped up
