The Importance of Dryer Vent Sweeps

Is it taking longer than normal for your clothes to dry? If so, there’s a chance your dryer vent is overdue for annual cleaning. When the dryer vent is filled with lint and dust it reduces air flow capacity, so your dryer isn’t able to dry clothes as quickly and efficiently as it should. It’s important to have your dryer vent cleaned annually because if it gets clogged with lint a fire can occur. Did you know that dryer fires have been of the leading cause of house fires over the past few years? A dryer vent clogged (fully or partially) with lint reduces airflow escape. In turn this causes heat build-up and then ignition, which means a dryer fire. Concerned your dryer vent might need to be cleaned?
