Dryer vent cleaning promotes maximum air flow required to keep dryers operating safely and efficiently. The US Fire Administration reports over 15,000 dryer fires each year, causing injury, death and loss of homes. The USFA identifies “failure to clean dryer vents” as the number one factor contributing to clothes dryer fires.
The lint screen should be cleaned after each load of laundry, every time! Professional dryer vent cleaning should be done at least once a year, depending on family size. Large families or those who have pets will want to have dryer vents cleaned more often. Pet hair and dust also get trapped in the dryer vent system, causing it to become clogged and reduce airflow.
The importance dryer vent cleaning cannot be stressed enough. In addition to performing regular dryer maintenance, consumers can check the effectiveness of venting systems by removing the vent and drying one or two loads of clothing. If drying time improves with the vent removed, the vent must be cleaned.
Drying time increases when vents become clogged. Clogged dryer vents cause the dryer to heat up beyond normal operating temperatures, placing severe stress on electrical components and blowing much hotter air onto the trapped lint. Because lint is highly flammable, the increased heat creates a dangerous fire hazard. Clogged dryers operate at a decreased efficiency, costing more to operate and creating safety hazards.

Charlotte, NC and www.charlottedryerventlady.com are working to educate consumers as they teach dryer fire safety and promote energy saving practices. Dave Lavalle, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard in Charlotte, NC, is all for The Right to Dry movement that supports consumers who live in areas that prohibit the use of a clothesline.
ReplyDeleteWhy would a dryer vent cleaning company support Right to Dry? Dave Lavalle says, “Laundry detergents and fabric softener sheets are made to smell like the fresh outdoors with names like fresh-air, or clean breeze. Some people like to achieve this naturally, without the chemicals and man-made products.”
When asked if he thought the Right to Dry movement was a threat to his business, Dave replied, “We are not worried about losing business due to people line-drying their laundry. Most people will continue to use their clothes dryers too. We wish to promote all green practices, including line-drying some laundry to reduce the carbon emissions released into the atmosphere.”
Unfortunately, millions of people are denied the right to dry their laundry outside because it is considered to look unattractive to some homeowner associations. Neighbors complain about the view making the area appear to be poverty stricken. They have concerns about property values declining.
Dave Lavalle advises consumers that they can get involved with the Right to Dry movement and encourage their state legislators to introduce a Right to Dry bill.

ReplyDeleteInformative article! I wonder now if the CPSC report of 15,600+ home fires each year ten years ago is still valid or if we are seeing more or less fires related to dryers?
