Why have your dryer vent cleaned?

A clothes dryer can catch fire. The January 2007 report by the U.S. Fire Administration noted that over 15,000 dryer fires occur every year with over 80 millions dollars worth of property loss, 15 deaths and 300 injuries reported.  A clogged dryer vent adds to this risk.

 

Improves both safety and efficiency of your dryer. Prevents possible carbon monoxide (CO) leakage (gas dryers). Less wear and tear on your dryer because of reduced usage prolongs the life of your dryer and lessens the need for unforseen repair or replacement cost. Improves both safety and efficiency of your dryer. 

 

Save on utility bill with reduced drying times. The clothes dryer is second only to the water heater in power consumption. Faster drying times mean lower utility cost.

How do I know if my dryer vent needs cleaning?

1.  If your clothes (especially towels and jeans) take a very long time to dry.

 

2.  If your dryer gets warm (or hot) to the touch while it is running.

 

3.  If your dryer vent cap does not open when your dryer is running.

 

 

How often should the dryer vent be cleaned?

 

Well, it all depends on several factors such as the number of monthly loads, the kind of laundry washed (diapers, towels and other high lint producing items). Other factors would be the length of the vent and the number of elbows in vent run.  Dryer manufacturers recommend the dryer vent be cleaned annually.

 

 

My dryer vent did not need to be cleaned for over 10 years, why does it need to be done annually now?

 

When a dryer vent pipe is first installed, the insides are new and slick. Over time, the inside of the vent pipe becomes corroded with the moisture from the venting. The inside of the pipe remains corroded which allows the lint to collect more quickly which results in the dryer vent needing to be cleaned more regularly.
