WHY IS DRYER VENT CLEANING IMPORTANT?

Clogged dryer vents can be costly to a home, so cleaning the dryer vent is extremely important for a number of reasons. Cleaning the dryer vent is a significant way to reduce the risk of fire to your home. According to a recent FEMA study, 28% of residential clothes dryer fires were caused by dust, fiber, and lint. 

Every year, there are an estimated 2,900 clothes dryer fires causing an estimated 5 deaths, 100 injuries and $35 million in property loss. Cleaning the dryer vent will cleanse the dryer vent system, removing all the debris that has built up over time. Cleaning the dryer vent is an important, but often overlooked step in maintaining your home or building.
