Serving St. Johns, St. Augustine, and surrounding areas, we’re here to ensure your dryer operates safely and efficiently.
Dryer vents clogged with lint and debris can lead to dangerous and costly problems. According to the U.S. Fire Administration, over 2,900 dryer fires occur annually, causing millions in property damage. Regular cleaning is essential to keep your home safe and your dryer performing at its best. Here’s why you should prioritize professional dryer vent cleaning:
Lint is extremely flammable, and a clogged vent increases the risk of a dryer fire. Regular cleaning removes this hazard.
A clean vent reduces strain on your dryer’s components, preventing premature wear and costly repairs.
A clogged vent forces your dryer to work harder, increasing energy consumption. Cleaning improves efficiency, lowering utility bills.
Clear vents allow proper airflow, so your clothes dry faster, saving you time and energy.
A clean vent prevents lint and allergens from circulating back into your home, especially important in Florida’s humid environment.
The National Fire Protection Association recommends cleaning dryer vents at least once a year, or more frequently for high-use households or homes with long vent runs.
If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to schedule a professional cleaning:
Clothes take longer than usual to dry (more than one cycle).
A burning smell during or after drying.
The dryer shuts off unexpectedly during a cycle.
The dryer or clothes feel unusually hot after a cycle.
Lint buildup around the dryer’s exterior vent or inside the lint trap.
It’s been over a year since your last vent cleaning.
We assess your dryer vent system, including the vent line, exterior exhaust, and connections, to identify blockages or damage.
Using high-powered vacuums and specialized brushes, we remove all lint, dust, and debris from the entire vent system, from the dryer to the exterior exhaust.
We clean the full length of the vent, including hard-to-reach areas, to restore proper airflow.
We ensure the outdoor vent cap is clear of obstructions like bird nests or debris, common in Florida’s environment.
We check the dryer’s transition duct for proper installation and replace it if needed (additional cost may apply).
After cleaning, we run a test cycle to confirm optimal airflow and dryer performance.
If your vent is damaged, crushed, or improperly installed, we can repair or replace it to meet safety standards.
Protect your vent from birds and pests, common in Florida, with a durable vent cover.
Upgrade to rigid or semi-rigid ducting for improved safety and airflow.
