Dryer Vent Cleaning System

View:

Dryer vent systems which are clogged with lint will overheat and ignite; this type of fire spreads quickly. Other things that lead to dryer fires are cleaning rags soaked with flammable chemicals. These should be line dried, even if they have been washed, as residue can remain. The heat from the dryer can cause the materials to ignite inside your dryer.

Your dryer vent removes heat, moisture and lint from your home; however, some of the moist lint sticks to the sides of the dryer ducts, forming a paste-like substance that dries and hardens. As more lint accumulates, air flow is restricted, the dryer vent system overheats and ignites..

Here are some tips for maintaining your clothes dryer vent system:

Clean the lint screen after every load ? your dryer will operate more efficiently, saving you money on energy bills and reducing the risk of a fire

Wash the lint screen periodically to remove residue from softener sheets

Inspect and clean your dryer vent often ? check to see that it is expelling air when the dryer is running

Do not place rags soaked in flammable chemicals in your dryer

Do not store flammable chemicals near the dryer

Have a qualified dryer exhaust professional inspect and clean your dryer vent system at least once a year

Do not leave your home or go to sleep when the dryer is running

Appliance maintenance is essential in saving money on utility bills, reducing wear and tear on your appliance and preventing clothes dryer fires.

UL Rating

Underwriters Laboratories is the trusted source across the US for product compliance. They have tested products for consumer safety for more than a century. The UL rating should be printed on a label in your clothes dryer, or the owner’s manual. If your clothes dryer is new it is most likely UL approved. If you just purchased your new dryer and connected it to your existing dryer vent system, you still have a potential problem. Older dryer ducts, made of vinyl or plastic do not meet current city, state and manufacturer’s codes. A professional dryer vent service and repair technician can quickly spot problems and install the proper system to keep your new (or old) dryer functioning safely and efficiently.

Length

Your dryer vent and duct systems carries lint, heat and moisture from your clothes dryer to the outside of your home. The longer the vent is, the harder your dryer will work and the greater your chances are of lint build-up within the system. The moisture from your wet clothing causes lint to stick to the sides of the duct work. As lint builds up, air flow is restricted, causing overheating and fire hazard. With a shorter duct system, the lint has a greater chance of making its way to the outside.

Twists, turns and sags

A sagging, vinyl dryer vent tube or one that has many bends will also cause air flow problems and reduce the efficiency of your clothes dryer. Like any appliance, one that works harder costs more to operate. Dryers that are located in the basement, on upper floors or on inside walls have longer duct systems that are more difficult for the average homeowner to access and clean. A dryer vent cleaning specialist has special tools for performing this task.

Smooth Material

What does the inside of your dryer vent tubing look and feel like? Are there screws protruding where pieces are joined together? The duct should be as smooth as possible on the inside to allow lint to escape instead of catching on screws and fasteners. Newer systems are made of semi-rigid metal and parts are designed to connect to each other without the use of screws to prevent this problem.
