Dryer vent cleaning should be part of your home maintenance routine, just like changing your air filter or cleaning out your gutters. Many dryer repair problems are the direct result of poor maintenance including dirty dryer vents and lint traps.
Don't wait until your dryer fails! If your dryer takes a long time to dry, this is the first warning sign that your dryer vents need a bit of TLC.
Arguably the most important reason to have your dryer vents cleaned is to prevent dryer fires. Clogged or dirty dryer vents are the leading cause of appliance fires in the US. Nearly 2,900 fires per year are caused by dryer vents that were not properly cleaned.

Fire prevention is reason enough to clean your dryer vents, but there are also many other benefits to annual dryer vent maintenance.
Long dry times are usually the reason people request dryer vent cleaning, but a longer-lasting machine and better performance are welcomed side effects.
If your dryer isn't drying clothes all the way or it's taking longer than usual, a clogged dryer vent may be to blame. Without free-flowing air, the dryer needs more than one cycle to dry items completely. Cleaning the dryer vent solves this problem easily.
Using multiple cycles to dry your laundry doesn't just waste time, it wastes energy and money too! A clog in the dryer vent is often the reason for inefficiency, costing as much as $25 extra a month. Routine cleaning can help reduce this waste.
One of the main causes of dryer vent blockages is pet hair. It gets sucked into the vent and tangles with lint from clothing, causing large lint balls that easily clog the vent. The more pets, the more reason to get a dryer vent cleaning expert to your home.
