Is dryer vent cleaning messy?
Our technicians meticulously remove all lint and debris that may have entered the home and ensure nothing is left behind.
Do I need dryer vent cleaning if I clean the lint filter after each use?
While cleaning the lint filter is important, it doesn’t catch all lint. Over time, lint can accumulate in the vent, even with regular filter cleaning.
How often should I get my dryer vent cleaned?
It is recommended to clean your dryer vent every 12 months and every 6 months for excessive use.
Are dryer sheets ok to use?
Due to wax build up on the lint filter, it is recommended to use wool dryer balls instead. If you prefer dryer sheets, you will want to wash the lint filter every 3 months to prevent clogging.
How long should my clothes take to dry?
The typical drying time is 45 minutes. Longer cycle times may indicate a clogged vent.
How do I know if I have a clogged vent?
Typical signs of a clogged vent are drying times longer than 45 minutes, burning smell, clothes still slightly damp after a full cycle or an abnormally hot dryer or laundry room.
Can a dryer vent cleaning lower my electricity bill?
Yes, because a clean dryer vent allows your dryer to operate more efficiently by reducing the drying time and saving energy. This will also contribute to a greener environment.
Will my dryer last longer if I get annual dryer vent cleanings?
Regular dryer vent cleaning can extend the life of your dryer by reducing strain on the appliance and preventing overheating.
Can lint and debris cause health issues?
A clean dryer vent will help maintain good indoor air quality by preventing the release of allergens from lint and debris into your home. This is important for those with allergies or respiratory issues. +
How does dryer vent cleaning prevent a fire?
Having a clogged vent can push heat back into the dryer and cause the lint and debris to catch on fire. By cleaning your dryer vent regularly to remove clogs, you can prevent a dryer fire from starting.
Do you do an inspection?
Yes, every dryer vent cleaning includes a detailed video inspection of the entire dryer ventilation system and the dryer itself.

I recently had my dryer and dryer vent cleaned and couldn’t be happier. My clothes are now drying in a short amount of time instead of having to run 2-3 cycles. I will be using them every year!!
