- Dryer Vent Cleaning – Special $59.00 with a Duct Cleaning. Regular $109.00.
We start by cleaning the box underneath and behind the tumble compartment of your dryer. When you clean your lint catcher and objects fall to the bottom of your dryer, this is where they go. Next, your dryer vent, which is basically the exhaust, is cleaned from the dryer to the outside vent using our air snake or, if needed, our scorpion brush, then we vacuum out all dirt, debris, and lint that naturally builds up with usage. This debris build up is a leading cause of house fires. It can also cause long drying times and can cause the dryer to stop all together with complete blockage of the vent occurring as a result.
Dryer vent cleaning can prevent fire hazard. Every year, clothes dryers cause more than 15,000 fires in the US, along with millions of dollars of property damage and hundreds of injuries. When the lint builds up in the lint trap, it prevents the proper airflow in the dryer. The air blockage can lead to overheating inside the dryer and cause fire. The dryer exhaust vent also gets clogged with lint if not cleaned regularly. This also increase the risk of overheating and fire.
Even though your clothes dryer has a lint filter, lint still escapes from the dryer into your dryer vent. It accumulates, unseen, inside the dryer vent, robbing your dryer of efficiency and, in some cases, creating a fire hazard. Keeping the lint filter clean and replacing it if it has holes can help, but lint will always escape and become trapped in the vent. You can check the vent outlet on the outside of your home. If you see any evidence of lint there, your dryer vent needs cleaning. Twin Cities Duct Cleaning has the tools and expertise to clean your dryer vent and restore your dryer to full, money-saving efficiency and safety. Combine this service with furnace air duct cleaning, and you’ll also save dramatically over having it done separately.
