We all think about cleaning out the lint trap after each drying cycle, but how often do we think about cleaning out the vent that the dryer is hooked up to? Probably not at all or it is on our minds very little. The amount of lint that gets stuck inside the dryer vent can become quite large. It is the cause of clogs and will even cause your dryer to run less efficiently. Maybe you are wondering why you are having to run your dryer more than once to get the clothes dry, or perhaps the clothing is really hot when you get ready to take it out. The average homeowner will think that the dryer is about to go out or that they need to call in a repair person. The solution is most likely very simple. So simple in fact that you will be thinking now why didn't I take care of this problem sooner? The pitfalls of having too much lint inside of the dryer vent can cause your energy bill to become higher as well. It would not be too hard running up the bill when you are drying clothes longer and over multiple cycles because they stay damp far too long. Are you also aware that all of that trapped lint is one of the biggest causes of home fires? It is true. Here are some statistics for you that will no doubt get you to thinking about having the experts at dryer vent cleaning Glen Allen come out sooner than later. The US Fire Administration says that there are 15,000 structure fires each year due to clothes dryers and 80% of those are caused by clogged dryer vents. Lint is a highly flammable substance. The more lint that collects on the inside of the dryer vent the more probability there will be that it will ignite when the hot air that the dryer expels moves over it. This problem and potential fire hazard is very preventable. It only takes 45 minutes to one hour to have the job done too. The little amount of money that you are going to spend having your dryer vent cleaned is a much better trade than a home fire. The damage done to a home can be very costly. Keeping the dryer vent cleaned regularly will keep your dryer working properly for longer. When the hot air inside the lint vent can not escape normally to the outside of the home it will back up into the dryer and cause internal damage to the machine's electrical parts. Running it longer will also cause wear and tear on the mechanical parts that would probably have lasted longer if the heat hadn't gotten out of hand. A professional dryer vent cleaning Glen Allen visit to your home can improve the lifespan of your dryer and keep everyone in the home safe. Dryer vent cleaning is very easy in fact and it does not require many tools. We have everything needed to do the job on hand. We will unhook the dryer connections from the wall and push a flexible rod that joins together in pieces to make it fit the length of the dryer vent. Not all dryer vents are the same length so some rods will extend farther than others. A brush attachment will be added to the first piece of the flexible rod that goes into the dryer vent. After the first two rods are attached a drill will go onto the opposite side and then be turned on. The brush will be pushed through the vent and more rod pieces will be added to make sure that all of the lint is cleaned from inside the walls of the dryer vent. On the other side of the vent we attach a vacuum to make sure that the lint goes inside of it and not on the ground as it will definitely make a mess. Dryer vent cleaning Glen Allen will then reattach the dryer connections to the wall and make sure that the dryer is working properly again. The vent flap on the outside of the house should be open when the dryer is on. If it is not open then this is another clue that you should have your dryer vent cleaned out.
