Dryer Vent Cleaning

 

Dryer vent cleaning is becoming one of the most important concerns of home owners today. Hundreds of thousands of dollars are lost due to a problem that can easily be corrected. Some people believe they can clean the dryer vent themselves with a gadget purchased from a catalogue. If the vent is not cleaned properly every year or two you might be creating a fire hazard. A clogged dryer vent is the most dangerous hidden cause of house fires. Du-More Home Solutions has photos of dryer vents that are only a couple years old and we removed enough debris to fill a small trash can.

What happens when the dryer vent becomes clogged or restricted?

•  The dry over works and your clothes do not dry properly.

•  Mildew can grow if the vent is detached under the home.

•  The internal static pressure rises in the dryer lowering the airflow and causes the heating elements to overheat.

•  Mechanical failure.

•  Fires.

Dryer vent cleaning has become one of our most popular services. Our price to clean a dryer vent starts at $55 for 15 feet or less and $75 for more than 15 feet plus a one-time $65 trip fee that can include other services.



How Du-More Home Solutions cleans the dryer vent:

 
 

•  The dryer is turned on to check the air flow.

•  Compressed air is used to blow out the dryer's lint trap and the hose connected to the wall.

•  A metal brush 15' – 20' is inserted inside the vent and the dryer is set on “air” to help remove debris and to show us the airflow has increased. By using a rotating metal brush you receive one of the best cleanings in the market today.

•  We test the dryer afterwards on “heat” mode to make sure the dryer is safe to operate.
