Clothes taking multiple cycles to dry. Dryer running unusually hot. Burning smell during operation. Lint accumulating around the dryer or vent hood. These are signs of a dangerous blockage.
Dryer vent fires cause nearly 3,000 home fires annually in North America—lint buildup is the leading cause. NFPA recommends cleaning dryer vents at least once per year, more often for commercial laundry facilities.
Lint is the primary culprit, but vents also collect dust, debris, and even bird nests in exterior exhausts. Long vent runs, multiple elbows, and flexible ducts trap more material and need more frequent cleaning.
We clean the entire path from dryer to exterior using rotary brushes and high-powered vacuums. After cleaning, we verify airflow and check that your exterior vent flap opens and closes properly.
