Dryer Vent Cleaning: Ensuring Safety and Efficiency

At OS Handyman, we understand the critical importance of dryer vent cleaning for two compelling reasons:

First, the accumulation of lint in dryer vents is a leading cause of home fires. According to the U.S. Fire Administration, failure to clean dryer vents results in more than 2,900 residential fires annually, causing injuries, deaths, and millions in property damage. Lint is highly flammable, creating a hazardous environment for your home.

Second, a clogged dryer vent reduces airflow, leading to longer drying times and increased energy consumption. The Department of Energy estimates that a clogged vent can increase drying time by up to 30%, resulting in higher gas and electric bills. Maintaining a clean vent ensures optimal dryer performance and energy efficiency.

Our team of highly qualified technicians specializes in delivering quality dryer vent cleaning services. They meticulously remove flammable lint and debris, making your home safer and your dryer more efficient.

You should schedule a dryer vent cleaning if:

1. You notice a significant buildup of dust behind the dryer.
2. You've lived in your house for over a year without vent cleaning.
3. Your clothes feel excessively hot at the end of the drying cycle.
4. Your dryer vent shuts down prematurely.
5. Drying times are extended, especially for towels and jeans.
6. The dryer vent hood flapper fails to open properly.
