FAQs

Q: Do I really need to worry about getting my dryer vents cleaned?

A: Yes. One of the leading causes of house fires is the dryer.  Between the years 2002-2010, an annual average of 15,700 clothes dryer fires occurred in homes causing over $88 million in property loss each year.

Q: How often should I have my vent cleaned?

A: We recommend having your vents inspected every year and cleaned as needed. Ask about our lifetime warranty program and our discounted annual service fees.

Q: How can I tell if I should have my vents cleaned?

A: Increased drying times are one of the best indicators of a dirty or clogged vent.  If it takes more than one cycle to dry a load of clothes, especially jeans and towels, cleaning is most likely in order. 

Q: Are these plastic dryer-to-wall vent extensions safe to use?

A: No. Consider having one of our trained professionals install a proper vent extension.

Q: My laundry room is on the second floor next to the bed room. Does this matter?

A: Yes. The placement of your laundry room may require longer venting lines.  Long vent lines can result in the increased build-up of lint.  Additionally, some newer dryers are not configured to work with these long vent lines.  Our technicians can evaluate your specific venting requirements and recommend the best configuration.

Q: My house is only a year old. I can wait a few more years before calling you, right?

A: In our experience, it is never too early to call. Improperly installed vents are a major cause of house fires.  In our experience, we've even found insufficient venting in new, upscale housing.

Q: My dryer doesn't seem to dry my clothes well lately. Does this mean I need a new dryer?

A: Not necessarily. Clogged vents or improperly installed vents will prevent your dryer from efficiently drying your clothes. Consider calling us before purchasing a new dryer. Many folks purchase new dryers when the problem is really the venting and the new dryer still doesn't dry the clothes.

Q: I need to buy a new dryer anyway. So I don't really need to worry about having my vent cleaned, right?

A: After the removal of your old dryer is a perfect time for a visit from one of our trained service professionals to inspect and clean your vent so that your new dryer can operate at maximum efficiency.

Q: It looks like there is water dripping from my dryer vent. Is this normal?

A: One of the most important functions of a dryer is the elimination of moisture recovered during the heating of damp clothing. This moisture is held in the warm air produced by the dryer as humidity and is normally expelled to the outdoors through the dryer's vent. If this air cannot be adequately removed, poor drying will result. This moisture can also condense into pools of water in the dryer vent, eventually leaking out. Any moisture accumulation inside the dryer ducting is a sign of poor venting which should be checked.

To ensure better and more efficient performance of anything like a dryer, timely care and maintenance are indispensable. This is where the importance and role of dryer vent cleaning in New York very comes into play.

The report says that around 15,500 fires are caused every year by dryer vents. It is needless to say how much loss of life and property a fire can cause. But you know why it happens? It happens due to the negligence of a person. When there is excess accumulation of lint and other debris, the duct gets clogged and gives rise to problems by preventing the inflow and outflow of air which doesn’t let carbon dioxide and moisture vent out. And finally the situation leads to a conflagration. But you need not worry at all, as you have with you the facility of dryer vent cleaning in Los Angeles.

Dryer fires are more likely to occur in a poorly installed dryer vent system made of flexible foil, plastic or vinyl.  This is because these types of dryer ducts sag and allow lint to build up at low points.  Ridges can also trap lint.  Metal ducts are much safer because they don’t sag so lint is less likely to accumulate.  Metal ducts are also more likely to contain a fire should one occur.

Even the very best, state of the art dryer vent system requires regular cleaning to remove lint build-up and promote maximum air flow.  It is highly recommended that you have a professional perform a dryer vent inspection and cleaning every year.

Dryer fires typically start under the dryer when the motor overheats.  Overheating is caused by a build-up of lint in the dryer vent system, blocking air-flow.  If your dryer should throw a spark and ignite the lint, the draft from the dryer will draw the fire into the duct where more flammable lint provides fuel for a rapidly spreading home fire.

Other causes of dryer fires include failure of the thermostat or limit switches, lint inside the dryer chassis, a missing, clogged or damaged lint screen, a crushed hose behind the dryer, or a bird’s nest or other debris in the vent.
