How Dryer Vent Cleaning Works?
Our professional dryer duct cleaning process starts with the visible dryer duct after disconnecting the duct from your dryer. We will clean the entire duct and entry/exit points, provided that we are able to access both. After the visible duct, we will scrub deep within the inner workings of your bends and turns with special tools to remove any lint build up that commonly occurs in the unseen areas of your vent system. It is hidden from sight and thus an unknown danger.
This cleaning is designed to clean out any buildup or particles that are preventing the air from flowing properly through your dryer. This can cause damage to your clothes, as well as start fires. Our technicians will use a rotating brush and powerful vacuum to remove all loose debris from your dryer's ductwork. The rotating brush scrapes buildup off the inside walls of the duct and the vacuum pulls it out of the system leaving an unobstructed airway. You will see improved performance, less heat damage and less wear on clothing after this cleaning service!

The Dangers of a Clogged Dryer Duct
The dryer duct system is something that many people take for granted. They just assume that it is clean, but many need our professional dryer duct cleaning to clean out the dirt and debris from their ducts. This prevents fires from starting in their home from lint build-up and keeps the air in their home safe for them to breathe and for their sensitive electronics in their home.
Your clothes dryer may be one of the most important appliances in your home, but it could also be responsible for a deadly fire. In fact, according to a report by the US Fire Administration, clothes dryers are responsible for approximately 15,500 structure fires in our country every year. A staggering 80% of these fires start with a clogged dryer duct! Sadly, these have resulted in up to 15 deaths and 400 injuries a year. Thousands of other homeowners and/or occupants are treated for symptoms of poisonous gas fumes, also caused by a blocked dryer duct.
Dryer fires are common and most often start with a build up of lint inside of the dryer ducts. The dryer over heats and ignites the highly flammable lint which rapidly spreads through the entire dryer duct system throughout your home. If the dryer duct is not well constructed or is exposed to open spaces inside your home, the fire can spread causing catastrophic property damage, personal injury and possibly loss of life.
