Charlotte, NC – Dryer vent repair or maintenance might be what it takes to get an old dryer performing at peak efficiency. The picture about shows a dryer vent that disconnected within the crawlspace in a Charlotte home and has been leaking which can cause a mold issue. Many mechanical inventions lose efficiency over time as parts wear out, but this is rarely the case with clothes dryers. When drying time increases, even with very old clothes dryers, it could be an air flow problem. Dryer vent repair or cleaning is likely to improve dryer efficiency.
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 kept clean, the inefficiency must be related to the age of the dryer.
David Lavalle, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard of Charlotte wants consumers to be aware that age and wear is rarely the cause of longer drying times. "The lint screen only catches about 60 percent of lint removed from laundry; the rest escapes into the back of the dryer or the dryer ducts. Because the lint is warm and moist, it typically gets stuck where it eventually accumulates enough to block air flow." Lavalle said.
Older dryer vent systems or those made of vinyl or plastic will allow lint to build up more quickly. Dryer vent repair or replacement is necessary to increase dryer safety and efficiency.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety commission reports over 15,000 dryer fires each year. This number has dropped about 35% from the 24,000 annual fires in the late 1970’s. Dryer Vent Wizard is on a mission to decrease these numbers by increasing public awareness of the dangers of clogged dryer vent systems.
Dryer Vent Wizard is a member of the National Fire Protection Association and the largest chain of dryer vent cleaning, repair, replacement and alternation specialists in the U.S. with over 50 franchise locations.
