Dryer vents play a crucial role in expelling hot air and moisture from the dryer to the outside. Over time, lint, dust, and other debris can accumulate in these vents, posing a fire hazard and reducing the efficiency of the dryer. Cleaning dryer vents, therefore, is essential for both safety and performance.
Key Steps of Cleaning Dryer Vents:
Initial Inspection:
First we check for visible blockages or signs of wear and tear in the vent system.
Disconnect the Dryer:
Safely disconnect the dryer from the power source and detach the vent pipe.
Remove Debris:
We use specialized brushes and vacuum cleaners to remove lint, dust, and debris from the vent.
Inspect and Replace:
Check the vent for any damages or wear and replace any damaged sections.
Reconnect and Test:
Reattach the vent pipe, reconnect the dryer, and run a test cycle to ensure proper airflow.
Frequency:
For Residential, we recommend annually or bi-annually cleaning, depending on usage.
For Commercial; frequently cleaning required due to heavy usage.
