Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer Vent Fires Are A Serious Problem

According to the Consumer Products Safety Commission, there are roughly 16,700 dryer vent fires a year, causing millions of dollars in property damage, and many injuries and lost lives. The cause, more often than not, is lint in dryer vents, which builds up due to neglect and failure to clean.

But lint build-up isn’t the only issue — improper installation of the dryer vent system can also pose a dangerous threat. The Fire Safety Guys, LLC can detect potential flaws in dryer vent installation, including the presence of flammable vinyl duct, or a duct run that hasn’t been properly routed. With a thorough inspection from us you can get a clear view into whether or not your vent system is performing properly and safely.

Dirty Vents Also Waste Your Money

If you keep finding damp clothes after running your dryer for a reasonable amount of time, it doesn’t necessarily mean that your dryer is on its way out. A clogged dryer vent duct creates reduced air flow, which doesn’t allow your dryer to work as efficiently as it should. In other words, a clogged vent will have you spending more money on utilities, while getting less satisfactory results.

Having your dryer vent system cleaned and inspected yearly by a dryer vent cleaning professional can help keep your dryer running as it should, and can help you avoid enormous energy bills and costly and unnecessary replacements.
