Dryer Vent Cleaning Service

Lint Build Up in the Vents – A Fire Hazard

The constant use of a home dryer machine can also pose some dangers, especially when it comes to the lint build up that might occur in the exhaust vent. Lint is flammable and it is one of the leading causes for residential fires.

Lint builds up can also eventually reduce the dryer quality of your machine to the point that it could damage clothes. To avoid such scenario, a regular check and cleaning of your dryer vents are recommended ( usually once every year to 2 years depending on the use ).

Last, a clogged dryer vent will require your dryer machine to work harder than it should as ventilation is reduced, hence decreasing its efficiency and increasing your energy usage.

Importance of Dryer Vent Cleaning

Keeping your dryer vent clean,  will not only reduce the risk of house fires but it has also many other benefits such as an increase in energy efficiency. Clean dryer vent duct means your dryer machine needs to work less to push that air outside. You will also find that your clothes will be dried up completely without experiencing any fabric damage.

We usually recommend cleaning your dryer vents when you do your regular furnace and duct cleaning, which is usually recommended every one or two years depending on the home. It is more efficient and it will be less costly than if you order each service separately.
