Dryer Vent Cleaning is a critical home maintenance item that should be done at least once per year. Dirty dryer vents are one of the leading causes of house fires, and therefore, should not be overlooked!
First and foremost, having clean dryer vents greatly reduces your risk for a house fire. Obstructed dryer vents are the source of thousands of house fires every year. People often ignore or don’t recognize the signs of a clogged dryer vent, and this seemingly small oversight can have disastrous results. The best way to prevent house fires from starting in or around your dryer is to have your dryer vents cleaned by professionals!
If your clothes are taking longer than normal to be dry, it is likely due to a clogged dryer vent. In addition to improving the efficiency of your dryer, you will save a little on utility expense by having to run your dryer less frequently. Additionally, clothes that take longer to dry will be subject to more wear and weathering from the heat.
