Don’t Neglect Your Dryer Vent Cleaning

Improperly maintained clothes dryers cause thousands of home fires each year. On top of the deaths and injuries, this results in more than a hundred million dollars of yearly property damage. A significant portion of these dryer-related fires could have been prevented if their dryer vents had been adequately maintained. When lint clogs your dryer vent, heat cannot exit and may cause the lint to ignite. Mr. Appliance of Lexington offers homeowners in the Lexington, Kentucky area professional dryer vent cleaning services. Trust our uniformed specialists to completely clear your dryer vent of all lint, dust, and debris. Learn more about our clothes dryer vent cleaning services.

What Are Dryer Vent Cleaning Services?

Your dryer has a vent that allows hot air and humidity to escape. This vent also transports a significant amount of lint out of your dryer. Over time, lint accumulates inside this vent, and it can eventually create a blockage. Dryer vent cleaning services, like the ones we offer, use special tools and techniques to completely clean your dryer vent.

How Often Do I Need to Clean My Dryer Vents?

Professionals recommend that homeowners schedule dryer vent cleaning at least once a year. If you have a large family or use your dryer more than the average person, then we recommend dryer vent cleaning services as often as every three months. If you are unsure, you can schedule a dryer vent inspection with Mr. Appliance of Lexington. We are happy to assess your dryer vent’s configuration and your average use to give you a custom recommendation for your dryer vent cleaning schedule.

Isn’t Cleaning My Lint Trap Enough?

You might think you don’t need to clean your dryer vent because you are diligent about emptying your lint trap after every use. Your lint trap is only responsible for capturing 25 percent of the lint expelled from your dryer during any given cycle. That means that every time you empty your lint trap, you can imagine three times as much lint going through your dryer vent. If properly cleaned, most of that lint will be expelled through the external flap, but this lint will accumulate over time.

The Additional Benefits of Dryer Vent Cleaning

While preventing a potential fire is the most important reason to get routine dryer vent cleaning services, it’s not the only reason. Just like any home appliance, your dryer will perform better when it is well-maintained. Some of the most notable benefits of routine dryer vent cleaning include:

  • Shorter drying times
  • Increased energy efficiency
  • Meeting insurance requirements
  • Extending the lifespan of your dryer
  • Reducing humidity inside your dryer and laundry room
  • Preventing fires, carbon monoxide backup, and other safety risks
