How to Clean a Dryer Vent to Prevent a House Fire

Thousands of house fires occur annually because of dirty dryer vents. You can do a few things to help with house vent cleaning, but for regular service or a serious clog, you need professional dryer vent cleaning in Toronto. Professional vent cleaning services eliminate any risk of a fire. When researching different dryer duct cleaning companies, choose one with a reputation for outstanding services at a competitive rate.

A professional will clean the lint trap and dryer hose for you. As an example, if you are disabled or cannot move the dryer out from the wall without assistance, call a reputable company for help. However, a professional does much more. Using specialized equipment, the expert will also look at the outside dryer vent cap and insert a long vacuum tube and snake-like brush to loosen and remove any debris inside. The expert checks for significant masses attached to the walls inside of the ventilation pipe and eradicates them using the same equipment.

A dryer’s venting system consists of bends and elbows that are difficult to navigate and pipes that measure anywhere from 5 to 40 feet long. Cleaning out the entire system requires professional assistance. An expert offers diagnostic services to determine the volume of pressure going through the vent and the amount of gas escaping into the home.

With professional cleaning, your dryer does not run as long to get a full load dry. That means there is less wear and tear on the appliance and reduced utility costs each month. If you have to run your dryer a long time to dry clothes, you notice a funny smell, items come out hot to the touch, or it has been more than one year since your last dryer vent cleaning service, seek professional help.

To protect you, your family, pets, and personal belongings, it is essential that you have your dryer vent system cleaned. Unfortunately, there are people who lose everything, and sometimes even their life, because they failed to have their system checked.
