Dryer Vent Cleaning in San Jose

Services for Safer, More Effective Drying in Silicon Valley and The South Bay

Did you know that a dirty, clogged dryer vent is a serious fire risk? The Consumer Product Safety Commission has reported that there at least 15,500 fires caused by dryer exhaust ducts each year.

So how do you prevent these hazards from occurring in your home? The answer is dryer vent cleaning.

Our top priority is to ensure that your unit works both efficiently and safely. We take the time to thoroughly clean dryer vents, always getting the job done right the first time.

Why Do I Need to Clean My Dryer Vent?

Dryer ducts are generally only about four inches in diameter, so even just a small amount of deposit — such as lint, dirt, dust and other fibers — can clog the vent. You might notice that your dryer vent needs to be cleaned if the unit is not properly drying your clothes or if it takes an unusually long time to get your laundry dry.

While your dryer is running, it must have a way to exhaust the moisture from your wet clothing. If you have a gas dryer, you’ll also be venting the combustion products. As temperatures rise in the unit, the lint and dust particles collecting in the vent can easily become fire-starting fuel.

Cleaning Dryer Vents Can Save You Money

Buildup in your dryer vent can prevent air and moisture from escaping, leaving your clothes wet at the end of a drying cycle. To counteract this, many families end up running the same load of laundry through the dryer two or three times, which is a huge waste of energy and money.
