Did you know? According to the National Fire Protection Association, dryer fires cause $236 million in property loss each year. And it’s not just your property that gets damaged – dryer fires also cause nearly 400 injuries and over 50 deaths annually. Most of these fires could have been avoided with regular dryer vent cleaning and maintenance.

While most savvy homeowners know to clean out the lint trap after each dryer load, that’s not enough to lower your fire risk entirely. Lint and debris build up in your dryer vent over time, creating blockages that put strain on the machine and could lead to a catastrophic fire. If you own a laundromat or a multifamily apartment complex with multiple dryers, your risk is that much bigger. When you, your tenants, or your customers begin to notice that your dryer is warm to the touch or taking longer than usual to get clothes dry, it’s time to have your vents cleaned.
Dry Core Restoration’s dryer vent cleaning process is thorough and effective.
Most major manufacturers recommend having your dryer vent inspected and cleaned once a year; in fact, this may be required to maintain your dryer’s warranty. If your dryer is used frequently, is compact or stackable versus full-sized, or is more than 10 years old, it may need to be cleaned more often. As with all of our restoration services, Dry Core Restoration’s dryer vent cleaning process is thorough and effective. Your technician will remove the outside dryer cap, then we slide in a tube-like vacuum and snake brush to dislodge and remove debris.
The bends and elbows in your dryer vent accumulate debris buildup more quickly than the rest of the vent, so they’ll be given extra attention. To finish up, we’ll perform a diagnostic test to make sure that your vent is working properly. If you have questions for us at any point in the process, please feel free to ask.
Beyond lowering your fire risk, having your dryer vent cleaned and maintained regularly is kind to your wallet. A more efficient dryer doesn’t have to use as much energy to get your clothes dry, so you’ll likely notice a decrease in your utility bills. You’ll also spend less on costly repairs and replacements. And it extends the life of your clothes, too – longer dry cycles and higher heat can break down the fibers in your clothes, causing them to tear and fray. Regular dryer maintenance will keep you in your favorite outfits for years to come!
