Is it time to clean your dryer vent in El Paso, TX?

Do Your Clothes Take Longer Than 30 Minutes to Dry?

 

Is your dryer getting hot, to the touch?

 

How do I know that my clothes dryer vent needs to be cleaned?

 

Well, if you answered yes to the questions above, it's your dryer vent that is probably clogged and needs to be un-clogged.

 

 

Why should my dryer vent be cleaned in El Paso Texas?

 

1. Consumer Product Safety Commission says that in 2011, there were over 12,000 clothes dryer fires resulting in over $99,000,000  in damages, 330 injuries, and 20 lives lost. 

 

2. Save on your utility bill

 

3. Replace your clothes dryer less often.

 

 

I clean out the lint screen every time I dry clothes.  Why isn't that enough?

 

The screen is the interior filter for lint.  The back of the dryer has a flexible hose which leads into a longer vent which many times terminates through the roof or a wall that is several feet away from the back of the dryer.  This vent can collect lint and become constricted and clogged which reduces the efficiency of the clothes dryer.

 

 

How often should my dry vent be cleaned in El Paso Texas?

 

1. How many loads of laundry does the dryer handle?

2. What kind of  laundry is washed: lots of lint-producing items, such as diapers or towels?

3. How many elbows in the dryer vent are there?

4. How long is the dryer vent from the dryer to the exit point?

 

The best way to determine the cleaning status is to monitor the drying time of typical laundry loads.  When the loads take over 30-45 minutes to dry, it's time to clean out the vent.
