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.
