(WashingtonDC.CityRegions.Com, April 15, 2014 ) Fairfax, VA – Dryer vent cleaning should take top priority on the seasonal home maintenance schedule; however, this is the one area that is often forgotten according to Doug Bittner, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard. Lint accumulation in the dryer duct is the leading cause of dryer fires. https://plus.google.com/105298525398425438060/about">Dryer vent inspection and service by the Wizard is the best way to minimize the risk while improving dryer performance.
Doug Bittner advises his customers that almost half of the lint from drying laundry escapes the lint screen and ends up trapped inside the back of the dryer around the motor and in the dryer duct. Failure to maintain the dryer vent system causes the dryer to work harder and longer to do its job. Lint build-up causes wear and tear on the dryer motor and when the system overheats it becomes a fire hazard.
When asked what people can do to prevent dryer hazards, the Wizard (http://leesburgdryerventcleaning.blogspot.com/) strongly recommends a dryer vent inspection to be sure the system is installed properly. He finds and corrects problems with 9 out of 10 dryer vent systems. Professional dryer vent installation by a dryer exhaust specialist and regular dryer vent cleaning service will ensure a safer and greener clothes dryer.
Doug also explains how leaks in a dryer duct can lead to increased humidity in the home providing a breeding ground for mold and mildew growth. People with gas dryers also risk venting problems resulting in carbon monoxide poisoning. Regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning service is recommended to keep clothes dryers running safely and efficiently.
