 FAQs

  • Each year, thousands of fires are caused by clogged dryer vents. Lint buildup blocks airflow, causes your dryer to overheat, and turns your laundry system into a fire hazard.

  • Several warning signs can clue you in that your dryer vent is clogged or due for a cleaning:

    • Clothes take much longer to dry or don’t fully dry in one cycle.

    • The dryer or clothes feel hotter than usual at the end of a cycle.

    • You notice a burning smell or musty odor on your clothes during or after drying.

    • The outside dryer vent hood isn’t opening properly, or little to no exhaust air is coming out when the dryer is running.

    • Excess lint is accumulating around the dryer or on laundry.
      If you observe any of these issues, it’s time to get your vent cleaned. Ignoring the signs can put your home at risk of a dryer fire or cause your dryer to wear out faster.

  • While you can (and should) clean your dryer’s lint trap after every load, a thorough dryer vent cleaning is a bit more complex. Homeowners can attempt to clear short vent runs with a vacuum or DIY kits, but professional cleaning is recommended for the best results. Dryer vents often travel through walls or ceilings and can have bends that are hard to reach without proper tools. Our technicians have powerful rotary brushes and high-powered vacuums that can remove lint build-up that household vacuums might miss. We also ensure the entire length of the vent is clear, not just the first few feet. For your safety and convenience, it’s best to let the pros handle it. You’ll know it’s done right, and you won’t have to deal with climbing behind your dryer or onto the roof.

  • We recommend cleaning your dryer vent at least once a year for the average household. If you do laundry very frequently or have a large family (meaning your dryer is running daily), you might consider cleaning it every 6 months. Regular cleaning prevents excessive lint buildup. Also, if you notice warning signs like longer drying times or a burning smell, schedule a cleaning right away – those are indications the vent needs attention.
