How Dryer Vent Due works

You read the deadline or cost notes on dryerventdue.com for free. If you want the tailored PDF checklist, you choose a one-time ($15), annual ($29/year), or lifetime ($299) plan on our pricing page. We email your PDF within 5 minutes and, on annual or lifetime plans, send 30-day, 7-day, and 1-day reminder emails. Sign in to your account with a 6-digit email code anytime to re-download your PDF or update your due date. You complete the official filing or hire your own local company yourself. We do not file, we do not visit, and we never pass your email or phone number to a business.

The four steps in order

The free part starts with reading. The home page and the roof-vent page quote one public cost article and print the date we read it, so you can check the numbers before any money is involved. No account, email address, or card is needed to read them, and there is nothing to dismiss first.

The paid part has three steps: choose a plan, fill in four short fields, and complete card checkout in a window that opens on the same page. There is no redirect to a separate shop, no second form after payment, and no account creation requirement before checkout. After payment, the PDF is emailed and the same file is attached to an order you can reopen from your account.

Step 1: read the free cost notes and decide whether a checklist is actually what you want.
Step 2: choose the $15 one-time, $29/year, or $299 lifetime plan on the pricing page.
Step 3: enter your email, vent location, next date, and an optional property label.
Step 4: pay in the checkout window on the page, then open the PDF from your email or account.

Step 2: choose a plan without guessing at the price

The three plans differ in what arrives after the PDF. The one-time plan at $15 sends the tailored file and nothing else; it schedules no reminders. The annual plan at $29 per year is selected by default and adds reminder emails 30 days, 7 days, and 1 day before the date you store with the order. The lifetime plan at $299 is a single payment for the same reminder schedule plus a note and a refreshed file if a cited official page changes its figures.

The amount is never taken from the browser. The page sends a plan key, and the server looks up the price in its own table, so a modified page cannot change what you are charged. If you pay for the one-time plan and decide later the same UTC day that you want annual or lifetime, the account page offers the difference ($14, $270, or $284 depending on the two plans) instead of asking you to start again.

Step 3: the checklist fields and why each one exists

The form asks for an email address, the vent termination location, the next date you want to remember, and an optional label. The email is where the file goes and how an order is matched later, so use an address you can open on the day you buy and on the day a reminder arrives. The termination choice decides which of the three published ranges is highlighted in your file.

The next date is the only date the reminder schedule uses. It is your own calendar note, not a legal deadline, and nothing about the purchase is filed anywhere. The optional label, which defaults to Primary, prints on the PDF header so a file for a rental unit is not confused with a file for the house you live in. There is deliberately no phone field, no address field, and no card field on this form.

Step 4: pay inside the checkout window on this page

Pressing the main button opens a secure checkout window over the pricing page. Card details are entered there and handled by the card payment processor; this site never sees or stores a card number. The window can be closed and reopened without losing the fields you typed, and the order stays in a pending state until the processor confirms it.

If the checkout window cannot open, the error message includes a manual recovery button so a blocked pop-up does not strand a payment. There are no countdown timers, no invented discounts, and no pre-checked add-ons. The price on the card is the price at checkout, and the same three plans are the only things for sale on the site.

What you get

A tailored PDF checklist emailed to you within 5 minutes and stored in your account for re-download. On the annual and lifetime plans, three reminder emails (30, 7, and 1 day) before the date stored with your order, plus official-source change notes on the lifetime plan.

What you do not get

Filing, a site visit, a contractor introduction, a phone call, legal or trade advice, or a government receipt.

We also do not provide a price quote for your specific home, a diagnosis of your appliance, do-it-yourself instructions for opening a duct, or a list of local companies. Those are the boundaries that keep this a publishing product rather than a dispatch service, and they are stated on the pricing page before checkout as well.

How long it takes

The checklist email leaves within 5 minutes after payment confirmation, and your file is also available in your account via a 6-digit email sign-in code. If an email is missing, check spam or write support@dryerventdue.com.

The six-digit code expires after 5 minutes and the resend control waits 60 seconds, so the fastest recovery is usually to check spam first, then request one fresh code and use the newest message. Reading the free pages takes a few minutes; the paid flow is built so that a person who already knows what they want can finish it in one sitting without creating a password.

After delivery: account, reminders, and renewals

The delivery email contains the PDF as an attachment, a one-time download link, and the address of the account page. The one-time link works once, which is why the account exists: signing in with an email code lets you download the file again whenever you need it, including after you replace a phone or lose the original message. The annual renewal and the reminder date are both managed in that same place.

Canceling the annual plan stops the next renewal charge and future reminders; it does not refund a period in which a checklist or reminder was already emailed. Lifetime customers can stop emails at any time without losing the file already delivered. If the site ever closes, lifetime customers receive the last checklist they were entitled to before it goes offline.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account before I can buy?

No. You can check out as a guest with an email address and create a sign-in only when you want to re-download the file or manage a reminder date. The account uses a six-digit email code instead of a password.

Which plan is selected by default?

The $29 annual plan is selected when the pricing page opens. The $15 one-time checklist and the $299 lifetime option are visible on the same row, and nothing is added to your order unless you choose it.

Can I finish checkout without leaving the pricing page?

Yes. The card window opens over the page and closes back to it. No redirect to a separate storefront is required, and the fields you typed are retained if the window has to be reopened.

How do I get the file again after the email link expires?

Sign in at the account page with a six-digit code sent to your email, open the order, and press the download button. Downloads from the account are unlimited for as long as the order exists, so you do not need to keep the original email.

Can I change the reminder date later?

Yes. The account page lets you edit the date stored with the order, and the reminder schedule moves with it. You can also stop the reminder emails entirely without canceling anything that was already delivered.

What if I choose the wrong plan?

If it is the same UTC calendar day as your payment, the account page offers a same-day upgrade that charges only the difference between the two plans. Once that day has passed, the earlier charge is governed by the refund rules on the refund page, and because the file has already been delivered, that order is final, so a change of plan becomes a second purchase rather than an exchange.
