DRYER VENT CLEANING

Marshall Cleaning Service provides professional dryer vent cleaning for both residential and commercial properties. When your dryer is functioning poorly, it is likely due to a clogged or debris-filled dryer vent line. Lint, debris, and other common sources of dryer vent clogs can not only affect the efficiency of your dryer, but they can also be a serious fire hazard, or possibly carbon monoxide poisoning.

According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, more than 15,000 fires are sparked every year by clothes dryers. Lint and other debris can build up in your dryer vent, reducing air flow to the dryer, backing up dryer exhaust gases, creating a fire hazard.

Our dryer vent cleaning services remove the fire hazards from your dryer vent line and offer many other benefits related to your dryer’s performance. By restoring the right airflow throughout your dryer vent line, you can reduce drying time, improve energy efficiency, and decrease wear on your dryer and clothes.

DID YOU KNOW?

Cleaning the dryer vent…

  • Allows your dryer to perform at peak performance
  • Allows clothes to dry more quickly saving you time
  • Gives peace of mind eliminating potential fire hazard
  • Saves you as much as $18 - $24 on monthly power bills
  • Limits mold, mildew and other bacteria on your clothes and in your home
WHAT ARE THE SIGNS THAT I NEED DRYER VENT CLEANING?

• It takes more than one drying cycle to dry one load of laundry

• Your dryer is hot to the touch, indicating it is overheating

• Your clothes smell "musty" after being in the dryer

• You see an increase in energy bills (dryer has to run longer and work harder to dry clothes)

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN MY DRYER VENT IS CLOGGED?

Reduces airflow and forces your dryer to work harder, which can cause:

• Temperature of the dryer to increase dramatically

• Accelerated thermostat failure

• Higher energy consumption

• Reduction in the lifespan of your appliance

WHAT DOES THE U.S. FEDERAL EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT HAVE TO SAY?

Clogged dryer vents can be costly to a home so cleaning the dryer vent is extremely important for a number of reasons.

According to the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a full load of wet clothes can contain up to one and a half gallons of water. With the drying process:

• Moisture is removed along with tiny fibers (lint)

• Lint and other debris accumulate in dryer vent ductwork

• Dark, moist ductwork becomes an ideal breeding ground for mold

Cleaning the dryer vent will cleanse the dryer vent system, removing all debris that have built up over time. Cleaning the dryer vent is an often overlooked, but an important step in maintaining your home or building. A good rule of thumb is to have dryer vent and air duct cleaning performed at the same time.

Cleaning the dryer vent is also significant in reducing the risk of fire to your home. According to a recent FEMA study, 28% of residential clothes dryer fires were caused by dust, fiber and link. Every year, there are an estimated 2,900 clothes dryer fires causing an estimated 5 deaths, 100 injuries and $35 million in property loss.

Facts about home clothes dryer fires:

• 2,900 home clothes dryer fires are reported each year and cause an estimated 5 deaths, 100 injuries and $35 million in property loss.

• Failure to clean the dryer (34 percent) is the leading cause of home clothes dryer fires.

• More home clothes dryer fires occur in the fall and winter months, peaking in January.

SHOULD I HAVEA BIRDCAGE/COVER INSTALLED?

Yes, if you don’t already have a birdcage cover over the exit of your dryer vent it’s strongly recommended.  Birds, bees and many other animals like the warmth of a dryer vent and like to make it home.  Unfortunately, this clogs your line creating a lot of issues.  Be sure to ask about having Marshall install a birdcage / cover for you.

THE CLEAN SALE
Obstructed dryer vents are the source of thousands of house fires every year. People often ignore or don't recognize the signs of a clogged dryer vent, and this seemingly small oversight can have disastrous results, including the loss of life and property. The best way to prevent house fires from starting in or around your dryer is to have Marshall Cleaning Service inspect your dryer vent system.
SAVE TIME
As your dryer vent becomes clogged, drying time gradually increases. While you may not notice the extra few minutes at first, the drying cycle will continue to take longer as the vents become more clogged until you eventually have to run a second cycle in order to dry clothes completely.

You can reclaim your time that would be lost to extended or repeated drying cycles by having Marshall Cleaning Service clean your dryer vent.
INCREASE EFFICIENCY
If you’re spending extra time to dry clothes, chances are your dryer vent line is clogged.  If that’s the case, then you are also spending extra on utilities. Extended or extra drying cycles also mean your clothes will be subjected to more wear and weathering. Calling Marshall Cleaning Service will shorten your drying time, you’ll use less power and save your clothing from excessive damage.
