Dryer vent cleaning improves the safety and efficiency if your dryer installation. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission in 2003, neglecting regular clothes exhaust service resulted in over $107.3 million in residential fire property loss. Lint that collects in your vents is extremely combustible. Over time, your dryer exhaust vent can fill with lint that gets past the dryer's filter.As the lint builds up, this can cause over -heating, which can lead to a fire.
In addition to lint build up, improper installation of your dryer vent system can also create a serious hazard . Such problems as improperly routed dryer vents or vents that are damaged or disconnected can cause serious problems.

- The back of the dryer is cleaned, as this is where lint can accumulate.
- The dryer vent and flexible ducting from the wall are visually inspected for correct type of duct work and absence of damaged or disconnection.
- The Hepa- Vacuum system is connected to the dryer vent duct and special brushes run through the duct to remove lint or any blockages.

Annual dryer vent cleaning is more necessary than ever before because of the construction of newer homes today. Newer homes tend to have the dryers located away from an outside wall in bathrooms, kitchens and hall closets which is convenient, but these new locations mean the dryers tend to be vented longer distances and may have more bends to accommodate the extended path. As a result, the dryer ducts are harder to access and this additional length creates more places where lint, animal, animal nesting and birds can hide.
Benefits of regular dryer vent cleanings can include:
- Fire Prevention
