When Should I Call for Dryer Vent Cleaning?
Dryer vent cleaning isn’t something you actively think about. You may have a passing thought when you’re emptying the lint trap, but if you notice the following things, you should think about getting your dryer vents professionally cleaned:
- Excessive lint behind the unit
- Heat radiating from unit or very hot clothing
- Dryer not drying your clothes completely
- Moldy smell
- Lint is missing from the lint trap
- Seal to dryer door has lint around it
While we don’t actively think about our dryer vents, if you notice any of these, don’t hesitate to call. We’re happy to help and answer any of your questions that you may have.
If you’re wondering about how often you should get your dryer vents cleaned, we recommend at least once a year. We recommend twice a year if you use your dryer a lot.
Risks in Not Having Your Dryer Vents Cleaned
Along with the potential of a house fire, there’s also other risks that come with clogged dryer vents:
- Potential mold growth – When dryer vents are blocked, moisture remains in clothes or in the lint within the dryer. Moisture plus time equals mold growth. This exposes your home and family health to potential mold problems.
- Carbon Monoxide Exposure and Poisoning – When vents are blocked in gas dryers, these can cause carbon monoxide to seep into your home. Carbon Monoxide can cause breathing problems, difficulty thinking, and even death.
