Statistic: Dryer fires result in 20 deaths, 370 injuries and over $75 million in property damage each year primarily due to dryer lint. (source: Consumer Product Safety Commission) Many people who dry clothes should clean the lint trap (but don't) each time they use the dryer. When they don't, some lint will go around the lint trap and start to go down the exhaust path to the outside of your building. Over time, the lint builds up and can cause a blockage. This can result in carbon monoxide entering your home or possibly a house fire. In addition, animals entering your home through the dryer exhaust think lint makes a great blanket in the cooler months. This service could:
You are likely in need of our service if:
Have your dryer exhaust cleaned once per year (depending on frequency of use, items dried, conditions near the dryer). We can come to your home and clean the entire venting system for your dryer in most cases for $84.95 (consumer grade). If we need to access your outside dryer vent through a deck, there is a charge to open your deck (confused? Ask us details). No estimates, or surprise charges. Our 6-step service includes:

***Notice from the Consumer Products Safety Commission (March 2008)*** How often should I get my dryer vent cleaned? Generally speaking, you should have it done once per year. This is recommended because if there is something starting to go wrong, it can be caught early before any further problems occur. Excessive build-up of lint can build up faster if napkins or tissues are accidentally included in the wash (have you ever washed a piece of paper in your pocket to later see it in pieces?). This ends up in (or past) the lint trap. If you notice the drying time has increased, this can also alert you to potential problems. When the dryer is operating inefficiently, it is wasting gas and/or electricity to do the same job. Note: For safety reasons, most towns have established code as to what type of exhaust tubing should be used for dryers. Builders should use rigid pipe metal (not flexible) to run to the outside wall. If your exhaust vent is made of flexible vinyl (generally a faded white in color), it is flammable and should be replaced. When we find improper exhaust tubing, we will bring it to the attention of the customer and recommend it to be replaced. If the customer requests, we can provide a written estimate within 48 hours. I own an apartment complex with industrial dryers. What should I do? Call us for information on a maintenance plan. Your dryer likely needs our service more than consumer models. Some of your tenants might not be as careful with a dryer that is not their property. Protect the safety of your tenants as well as your building by keeping a safe environment. It also reduces gas and electricity usage. A maintenance plan makes good financial sense. The electricity savings alone could practically buy you another dryer over the short term. I live in a town home and would like my dryer vent cleaned properly. What should I do? Often times, associations have agreements with companies that come out to clean behind your dryer without checking the entire exhaust path. Not only is this inefficient with gas and electricity, it is also dangerous! In order for your dryer to properly vent the exhaust to the outside, the entire path needs to be cleaned-with proper protection against animals entering. Call us for information on a maintenance plan as well as a group rate. Having neighbors with dryers as well, it is very important that everyone maintains their exhaust. Laundromats Welcome!
