Dryer Vent Cleaning
When is the last time you had your Dryer Vent serviced and cleaned?
Just like your air ducts you can’t see inside your dryer vent! Using our video inspection camera, we can show you all the dirt and lint that stays inside your dryer and vent once you have completed your laundry and cleared the lint trap. Lint will build up in the dryer, transition duct and exhaust duct which can reduce airflow and create a dangerous situation which can lead to overheating and dryer inefficiencies, and in some cases, fires. When moisture cannot escape it will invite mold and bacteria build up as well. By cleaning your dryer vent, we can help ensure your clothes dryer is both safe and energy efficient!
Lint is one of the most flammable items in your home! With estimates of 15,500 US home fires being contributed to dirty dryer vents, it is more important than ever to get your dryer vent inspected and serviced.
Dryer Vent Stats:

Signs it could be time for a cleaning!
Regular Inspections
If your home is older than 4 years old or has not been inspected regularly, it could be time for you to schedule an inspection and cleaning.
Hot To Touch
If the outside of your dryer is hot to the touch or it takes more than one cycle to dry a load of laundry your vent could be clogged.
Is Something Burning?
If there is a burning smell coming from your dryer, you need to contact us as soon as possible! Lint is one of the most flammable items in your home.
Does dryer vent cleaning help lower my energy bills?
Yes, by having your dryer vent professionally cleaned, your clothes dryer will run more efficiently. Your dryer will not have to run as long, lessening the wear and tear on your dryer, reducing your need for repair and lengthening the life of your dryer.
Should I clean my dryer vent on my own?
Although a homeowner can clean dryer vents, it is advised that you consult a professional. Most homeowners don’t have the special equipment required to do a thorough job. A professional has special tools such as video inspection equipment to give a visual of the hard-to-reach areas of the dryer vent system.
