15,000 dryer fires annually in the U.S

Regularly cleaning the entire dryer vent system, ideally at least once a year, is crucial to prevent house fires, improve dryer efficiency, and reduce drying times. Lint buildup is a serious fire hazard, causing approximately 2,900 dryer fires annually in the U.S. While some basic DIY cleaning is possible, professional services offer the most comprehensive and safest solution for ensuring your dryer vents are completely clear.The primary reason to clean dryer vents is to prevent lint accumulation, which is highly combustible and a leading cause of house fires.A clean vent allows heat and air to escape more easily, helping your dryer run more efficiently and reducing the time it takes to dry clothes. Regular cleaning can help prevent your dryer from overheating and reduce wear and tear on the appliance. Clean vents at least once a year, or more frequently if you have pets or a large family, as these factors can increase lint production. For a thorough and complete cleaning, especially for long or complex vents, professional services are recommended. Professionals use specialized tools to snake the vent and suction out lint from the entire system, ensuring it's clear and safe.
