Charlotte dryer vent cleaning



The pictures are before and after pictures from an old plastic dryer vent in Matthews, NC that broke within the wall and had been leaking lint in the wall.
Charlotte, NC – Dryer vent cleaning is the only cure when clothes dryers work inefficiently. It is not normal for an older dryer to take several cycles to properly dry clothes. Many people think this is the case when their dryers are not working as well as they did when they were new. They think that as long as the lint screen is free of lint, the inefficiency must be due to the age of the dryer.

Dave Lavalle of Dryer Vent Wizard wants consumers to be aware that age and wear is rarely the cause of longer drying times. This us usually a sign of lint build-up in the dryer vent system. Other warning signs include no lint on the lint screen after a cycle, excess lint on clothes, clothes come out with a moldy smell or are very hot.

Dryer vent cleaning provides efficient air flow to take heat and moisture out of your home. Clogged dryer vents cause the dryer to run hotter and longer, eventually causing severe damage to the dryer and leading to a fire hazard. In addition, poor venting results in excess moisture in the air, causing mold and mildew damage and mold related illness to sensitive residents. Gas dryers require proper ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety commission estimates that over 15,000 fires are associated with clothes dryers each year, accounting for an average of 10 deaths and 310 injuries along with millions in property damage. This number has dropped about 35% from the 24,000 annual fires in the late 1970’s. Dryer Vent Wizard is working to decrease these numbers by increasing public awareness of the dangers of clogged dryer vent systems.
