Naples Dryer Vent Cleaning

Benefits of Dryer Vent Cleaning

Cleaning your lint filter after each load isn't quite enough, your lint trap only collects about a quarter of the lint that accumulates in your dryer. The rest collects in your dryer vent, obstructing airflow and creating buildup. This makes a pretty big impact on your dryer's efficiency.

Here are some of the immediate benefits of clean dryer vents:

  • Clothes that are no longer damp and excessively hot when the load has finished
  • Reduced drying cycles, especially for bulkier materials
  • Improved energy and/or gas efficiency, resulting in cheaper monthly bills
  • Extended longevity of your dryer
  • Satisfaction of home and fire insurance protocols often checked during inspections
  • Mitigation of carbon monoxide accumulation and serious fire hazards

How do I know my dryer vent needs to be cleaned?

You can't necessarily see inside your dryer vent so it's hard to visibly tell how clogged it is, that said, here are a few signs indicating you should have your dryer vent cleaned and inspected ASAP:

  • If it's been at least a year since your last cleaning
  • If your laundry is taking an unusually long time to dry. The moist air in your dryer can't escape through a clogged dryer vent. As such, the moist air is kept inside your dryer.
  • Your energy bills are increasing. Your clothes will take longer to dry which means your dryer uses more energy.
  • Your clothes are hotter than normal after a drying cycle. Since moist air can't escape, your dryer works harder than normal which will cause your dryer to get very hot.
  • If you notice lint buildup around your outside dryer flap. If lint is visible around your dryer flap, there will also be quite a bit throughout the vent itself
  • If you smell something burning in your laundry room. If you smell something burning, shut your dryer off immediately and give us a call. Lint is flammable so the lint in your dryer vent could catch fire.

How often do I really need to clean the dryer vent?

What are tips for dryer vent cleaning?

There are a few things you can do to ensure thorough cleaning of your dryer vent. First, make sure to unplug the dryer before starting any cleaning. Then, disconnect the vent from the back of the dryer and use a vacuum, vent brush, or dryer vent cleaning kit to remove any lint or debris. You should also clean out the vent hood outside your home to prevent any blockages. If you are unsure how to clean your dryer vent, it is best to consult with a professional.

Can I clean my dryer duct myself?
