How often is dryer vent cleaning recommended? How do people know when dryer vents need cleaning? Are newer models of clothes dryers less likely to cause a fire?
Tiburon, CA – The Tiburon Dryer Vent Cleaning addresses common concerns about the need for dryer vent maintenance. Rhonda Nole, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard has notices that many people question the necessity of professional dryer vent cleaning service.
Some homeowners are skeptical about the need for dryer vent cleaning service. When asked if it is necessary, the Wizard quickly answers, “Yes! Over 17,000 dryer fires are reported each year with most of them being caused by a clogged dryer duct.”
When asked how often dryer vent cleaning is recommended, Rhonda explains, “Dryer vent cleaning is recommended at least once a year for average homes; however; there are exceptions. Residents with large families or several pets should clean dryer vents more often. ”
The Wizard (http://tiburon.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) lists several warning signs that indicate the need for dryer vent cleaning service. Increased drying time is the most common warning sign of reduced air flow caused by excess lint accumulation. Other signs include the laundry room becoming unusually hot and humid while the dryer is running, the top of the dryer is hot to touch and laundry feels hot after a cycle.
Rhonda Nole advises residents to have their dryer vent system inspected if they have recently moved into a new home or if they have never had professional dryer vent service performed. She finds a problem in 9 out of 10 dryer vent inspections. The goal is to make all clothes dryers as safe and green as they can be.
