No. It goes into the attic and then out the side of the house. And yes, I've cleaned out the little flap and if does open freely when the dryer is on.

Yes. Last year I cleaned the entire duct system out. all the way from inside the dryer to the outside of the house. I was really hoping that would've helped but it didn't.

My LGE0442W takes forever to dry simple loads of clothes - for example, 3 towels takes more then 2 runs of 50 minutes each on high temperature.
When I take them out, they don't seem that hot but they do seem warm.
In my experience a heating element is either bad or good - not half bad. So maybe there's a resistor or something that regulates the heat output that has gone bad?

Any ideas would be appreciated.
