Most homeowners fail to include dryer vent cleaning on their list of yearly maintenance service calls. The cost of a dryer vent cleaning can pay for itself in as little as 3-6 months in energy savings alone. Just because your dryer seems to be working fine is not a good reason to put off having it cleaned.

Dryer vents are one of those “hidden” maintenance items that are often forgotten. The adage, “out of sight – out of mind,” holds true regarding dryer vent cleaning. Unfortunately, neglecting this simple yearly maintenance can produce harmful and, in some instances, even fatal results. Dryer lint is extremely flammable. Keeping your lint trap clean after every drying cycle and having your dryer vent professionally cleaned yearly is mandatory to help prevent dryer and vent fires. Clothes dryers cause more home fires than wood-burning fireplaces.

Did you know that your dryer is, hands down, the most expensive appliance to run in your entire house? It is second only to your Air Conditioner! A dryer vent clogged with lint will certainly cause a dryer to run hotter and harder, costing you money through higher utility bills. The longer it runs, the more it costs. When the vent is restricted, it overheats your dryer and damages internal parts like the heating elements, heat sensor safety switches, and/or expensive computer boards. A half-inch lint buildup in a 4-inch diameter duct reduces its efficiency by almost 50%!
