Fort Myers Dryer Vent Cleaning

What Does My Dryer Vent Do?

Your dryer dries your clothes, plain and simple. But the moist air that’s created from the wet clothes mixing with the hot air needs to go somewhere, and that’s where the dryer vent comes in.

The dryer vent ventilates that moist air outside your home via your dryer vent ducts. Your vent duct might be an aluminum foil duct, a semi-rigid metal duct, or a plastic or vinyl duct.

No matter which dryer vent duct you have, yours needs to be regularly cleaned so the wet air can continue escaping outside. Your lint filter won’t catch everything, even by cleaning it after each load. The lint, dirt, and other debris that squeaks past the lint filter will collect in your dryer vent.

Assuming you use your dryer at least once a week, you can imagine just how much lint and debris collect in your dryer vent! This lint and debris are exactly what we need to clean out of your vent, to not only make your dryer more effective but to lift the potential fire hazard your clogged dryer vent creates.

If it’s been a while since you’ve cleaned your dryer vent, don’t panic! Simply contact our experts to schedule your dryer vent cleaning in Fort Myers or Lee County.

Why Do I Need to Clean My Dryer Vent?

Have you ever given thought to cleaning your dryer vent? Sure, you clean your dryer’s lint filter after each load, but what about your dryer’s vent itself? Roughly 13,820 house fires are caused by dryers annually. And roughly 27% of those fires are caused by lint build-up, which equates to 373 fires. With this in mind, it's important to have your dryer vent cleaned to safeguard your family and home against these types of fires.

5 Signs Your Dryer Vent is Clogged

If you can’t remember the last time you cleaned your dryer vent, that’s a strong indication you should have yours cleaned ASAP.

Some other indicators include:

  • Your clothes are taking longer than normal to dry
  • Your clothes are abnormally hot after the dryer cycle
  • Noticing lint build up in your dryer hose or around your outside dryer flap
  • If it’s been at least a year since your dryer vent was cleaned and inspected
  • If you smell something burning while running your dryer

If you’re noticing any of these signs, we’d recommend having your dryer vent cleaned and inspected quickly! Call us or reach out to us online to make your appointment.
