Why Have Your Dryer Vent Cleaned?

Safety is one of the primary reasons for cleaning your dryer vent. When the dryer vent is clogged, heat builds up inside the dryer. This heat can actually get so hot that it will cause lint to ignite, burning material such as clothing or plastic or thin foil dryer transition hose. This will not only turn into a fire hazard, but this can potentially put you or your family at risk. This kind of risk is totally avoidable by simply carrying out dryer vent cleaning on a regular basis. Now, it’ll be important to realize that you can perform these cleanings yourself. However, in many cases, the dryer has a long vent, it may vent to the roof or on the outside on the second or even third story. If this is a situation you are facing, it’ll be important for you to call a professional Dryer Vent Cleaner to have them come in and perform the dryer vent cleaning for you. You will discover that when a cleaning is performed, this will provide savings on your electric bill, as well is your gas bill. Of course, this depends on the type of dryer you have. This will also allow your appliance to work at levels that are recommended by the dryer manufacturer. Anytime your dryer has to work overly hard, this can cause wear and tear on the components within the dryer that will need to be replaced sooner as a result of the dryer working too hard.

How Often Should the Dryer Vent Be Cleaned

If you’re wondering how often you should have your dryer vent cleaning, the recommended frequency is about once a year. Now, this will all have to take into consideration the type of dryer you have, how many live in the home, where the dryers located, how long the dryer vent is, and how long it’s been before its prior cleaning. Once all of this has been considered, you will be able to realistically figure out a schedule specifically designed for your dryer, and the next cleaning it will require. For those that have just purchased a new dryer, it is highly likely your dryer vent was not cleaned and you should call to book a dryer vent clean soon. For those that have owned their dryers for quite some time, it’s important to get your dryer cleaned soon so you know what the condition of the dryer vent is. If it has been longer than 12 months, you’ll either need to clean the inside of the dryer, or call and have a company come in and provide a service for you. Dryer vent cleaning & dryer cleaning are extremely important, and if performed properly – this will ensure that you’re not putting yourself or your family at risk, you are saving on your electric or gas bill, and you will get many years of service from your dryer as a result of this efficiency.

Why Dryer Cleaning and Dryer Vent Cleaning Makes Sense

Cleaner windows cleans dryer vents but we also clean and service dryers. In our experience we have found lint build up inside the dryer, sometimes burnt lint by the element, on the element housing and in the dryer exhaust. For this reason when we clean your dryer vent we recommend you let us service inside your dryer cabinet. This is recommended by your dryer manufacturer (in that book thing no one reads!). One more very important thing is that you should not have a plastic or thin foil transition hose (this connects the dryer to the wall) there is a warning on the back of the dryer that states this very clearly and insurance companies have denied claims (in the USA) from dryer fires because of this warning. Call us today for Dryer Vent Cleaning 905 966 0838 or via the contact form above.

Replace your plastic vinyl dryer hose with one thats rigid or flexible metal duct.

If you were to notice the manufacturer warning label on the back of your dryer, it says to use only metal dryer hose to connect to your dryer vent. This includes changing out the metal foil dryer hose as these contain paper. Why DIY or hardware stores stock these dangerous dryer hoses is beyond belief. The white vinyl dryer hose has a tendency to trap lint and won’t contain a fire in the event that one happens. Cleaner Windows carries exceptional replacement products for your plastic and vinyl dryer hose/duct.

*Remember – Never leave your clothes dryer unattended.

You must never leave your house or even go to sleep with the clothes dryer on. In the event that anything does occur, you won’t be able to react fast enough.

Keep the area around your dryer clear of clutter.

In recent years, the cost of utilities has skyrocketed. With the costs of oil and subsequently electricity, showing no sign of ever going back to levels we enjoyed pre-9/11, learning to manage and control costs when and where we can, is extremely important. One way to do exactly that is to reduce or eliminate waste. Many people aren’t aware of the fact that something as seemingly minor (though it’s anything but) as a clogged dryer vent can cost them hundreds of dollars each year in electricity. One very simple and effective way to reduce utilities costs is to have them cleaned.

Cleaning Your Dryer Vent Can Save You $25 Each Month

Many people spend an extra $25 a month for their utilities and don’t even know that they are doing so. When a dryer’s vents become clogged, it requires additional power to make it run. Over the course of a year, this adds to about $300 a year. In economic times where every dollar counts, this is a pretty big deal. Twenty-five dollars could buy about 7 gallons of gasoline or dinner for a few nights. Simply carrying out dryer vent cleaning can yield the big savings, effectively plugging up a money leak.

Avoid the Risk of Fire – Clean Your Dryer Vent

Each year 15,000 fires are started as a result of blocked dryer vents. These fires sometimes result in an incredible amount of damage and even death. They can, however, be avoided. Having the vents cleaned annually or whenever there is evidence that they are clogged will help a person do the aforementioned. Evidence of a blocked dryer vents generally include the following, the buildup of lint on the back of the dryer, a hot and human laundry room, lint on the clothing and clothes requiring more than one cycle to dry. If the vents haven’t been cleaned in the last year, arrangements need to be made to have them cleaned. Whenever the damper on the exhaust termination barely opens up when the dryer is on, this is also evidence that the dryer vents need to be cleaned. In addition to the safety aspect of clean dryer vents, there is also a financial one. It is possible for individuals to save about $300 each year on their utility bill, which is a pretty significant amount. Financial savings and improved safety are the two of the various reasons why people should be sure to have their dryer vents cleaned at least annually and/or whenever it is deemed necessary. Doing so could end up saving an individual’s life or the lives of his or her family.
