DRYER DUCT CLEANING

When you notice that your dryer is not working well, is not drying your clothes, or is taking longer than before, it means that there is lint or bird nests in the dryer vent and they need to be cleaned.

This cleaning starts at the source of the problem. Air duct cleaning is a whole-house cleaning process. Dryer duct cleaning is not. It addresses the root of the problem.

Why is a clean dryer vent so important?

The main reason MA Ultra-Fresh Duct Cleaning believes everyone should clean their dryer vent constantly is that a clean dryer vent reduces the risk of a dryer fire. As you know, there are over 15,000 dryer fires in our country each year. Lint is highly flammable, and when the dryer vent is clogged with lint, the dryer can’t breathe properly, and a fire can start.

Everyone should have their dryer vent cleaned annually, at least once a year, to reduce the risk of dry fires. Second, your laundry will drain much faster if the dryer vent is clean. If it takes you longer than 45 to 55 minutes to dry a load of laundry in your dryer, there’s a venting problem. When your dryer can’t breathe properly in a load of laundry, there’s a half gallon of water, and that water has to go somewhere—it has to go out through that vent into, you know, the outlet of your house. Your laundry isn’t going to run very fast. Your dryer vent, cleaned annually, will dry your laundry much faster.

The second reason you should have your oven cleaned is that the stress will significantly reduce your energy consumption. The main reason is that your dryers will have to work as hard as you want them to: you’ll be able to dry your clothes in 45 to 55 minutes, instead of having to run them for two hours. Therefore, your energy bills will decrease. If you have an electric dryer, your electricity bill will decrease; if you have a gas dryer, your gas bill will decrease. According to one study, if you clean your dryer vent, you will save an average of twenty-four dollars per month, or two hundred and eighty dollars per year.

HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOUR DRYER DUCT NEEDS CLEANING?

1. If your clothes take longer to dry,
2. If your dryer is not drying your clothes completely,
3. If your clothes become warmer than normal after drying,
4. If the exterior of your dryer becomes hot after drying,
5. If a burning smell is emanating from the dryer after drying,
6. If there is less lint in the lint bin than usual,
7. If the above signs appear in your dryer after it has been running for a while.
