Most people assume their lint traps catch all the lint, however, a significant amount of this lint is not caught by the lint trap and builds up inside the dryer-even on the heating element and in other places inside the dryer, causing it to overheat and possibly catch fire.<br \/>\nThere are several warning signs that dangerous lint build-up has occurred in your dryer and venting system, indicating that it needs a thorough cleaning:&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:p|font_size:14px|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Clothes take longer to dry or don&#8217;t dry fully<\/li>\n<li>Clothes are hotter than normal at the end of the drying cycle<\/li>\n<li>Outside of dryer gets very hot<\/li>\n<li>Outside exhaust vent flapper does not open very much, indicating low exhaust velocity<\/li>\n<li>Laundry room becomes more humid than usual<\/li>\n<li>Burnt smell is evident in the laundry room<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;The Benefits of Dryer Duct Cleaning&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h4|text_align:left|line_height:28px&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1538319671223{margin-top: 25px !important;margin-bottom: 5px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>REDUCE FIRE HAZARD<br \/>\n<\/strong>The longer operating hours lead to the heating of the dryer which is known to cause fires. Regular dryer vent cleaning can improve the efficiency of your dryer and reduce the risk of a fire in your home.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SAVING ENERGY<br \/>\n<\/strong>With a clogged dryer vent, the dryer is unable to perform efficiently and ends up taking longer periods to properly dry clothes, and other textiles. Apart from the extra time lost, this also leads to consumption of more electricity due to the longer operating periods. This raises the your utility bills. Cloths that stay in a dryer longer also wear out faster. You might be able to spend less on energy and clothing with a clean dryer vent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PREVENTING PROBLEMS<\/strong><br \/>\nCleaning your dryer vent regularly keeps your dryer from having to run as long and extends its life. Removing lint also prevents buildup in your dryer\u2019s moving parts and prevents breakdowns. Many people don\u2019t realize that they should have their dryer vent cleaned and instead replace their dryer when it starts to take a long time to dry clothes. This is a waste of money since the new dryer will still be connected to a clogged vent.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2812&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1539444409055{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221; title=&#8221;Before&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;2813&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1539444402308{margin-bottom: 20px !important;}&#8221; title=&#8221;After&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Hallway Shaft Cleaning&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h4|text_align:left|line_height:28px&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1538314256702{margin-top: 25px !important;margin-bottom: 5px !important;}&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Maintaining proper hallway ventilation systems is a key component of Indoor Air Quality.
