Course Background

“Investigating Residential Dryer Fires,” is a highly focused educational experience revolving around the know-how of dryer fire experts, background information obtained from Fire Findings’ extensive testing, interviews conducted and examinations of more than 1,000 dryers. Participants will also share their considerable experience with one another.

Dryer fires are all-too-common events and lint doesn’t cause all of them. Fire Findings created this two-day, very specialized class to share knowledge that can help others pinpoint the many causes of dryer fires.

You’ll see a lot of dryers in a lab setting where you can thoroughly explore their potential for fire causation. We hope the knowledge you gain will be the equivalent to many burned dryer exams.

Your $595 tuition to the dryer fires’ class also includes handouts and worksheets. Optional test credits toward CFI certification are also available, along with continuing education credits.
