Dryer Vent Cleaning FAQs
How Can I Prevent Dryer Lint Fires?
Dryer fires usually start when lint in ducts restricts air flow, restricting drying time and causing the motor to overheat. Lint underneath the dryer can catch fire, and the air draft draws the fire up into the duct. The issue can also be precipitated by thermostat or limit switch failure, lint inside the dryer, missing or damaged lint screen, a crushed dryer hose, or a debris, like bird nests, blocking vent.
How Often Should I Get My Dryer Vent Cleaned?
At least once a year depending on usage.
What Equipment Do You Use To Clean Dryer Vents?
We leverage a variety of different tools based on the situation, from air pressure tools that run off an air compressor, to brushes and bird nest removal tools. These help clean every inch of the dryer exhaust duct from the transition duct to the exterior vent cover.
How Do I Know It’s Time To Clean My Dryer Vent?
If it has been longer than 1 year since your last cleaning; your clothes are taking too long to dry; you get a code on your dryer that tells you the vent is clogged; you have a larger family and use the dryer often.
