Dryer Vent Cleaning in Lexington

Just like your air ducts, you can’t see inside your dryer vent! Using our video inspection camera, we can show you all the dirt and lint that stay inside your dryer and vent once you have completed your laundry and cleared the lint trap. Lint will build up in the dryer, transition duct, and exhaust duct, which can reduce airflow and create a dangerous situation. This can lead to overheating, dryer inefficiencies, and, in some cases, fires. When moisture cannot escape, it will invite mold and bacteria buildup as well. By cleaning your dryer vent, we can help ensure your clothes dryer is both safe and energy-efficient!

Lint is one of the most flammable items in your home! With estimates of 15,500 US home fires being attributed to dirty dryer vents, it is more important than ever to get your dryer vent inspected and serviced regularly.

Keeping your home safe starts with understanding the hazards of unclean dryer vents. Many homeowners overlook this crucial maintenance, but the consequences can be severe. Regular professional cleaning not only reduces the risk of fire but also improves the efficiency of your dryer, saving energy and prolonging the life of the appliance. Moreover, an unblocked vent ensures your clothes dry faster, saving you time with each laundry cycle.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Should Dryer Vents Be Cleaned?

It’s recommended that dryer vents be cleaned professionally once a year. However, this can vary based on the frequency of use, the type of laundry being dried, and specific conditions unique to the Lexington climate. Houses with longer dryer vents or multiple bends may require more frequent cleaning to maintain optimal efficiency and safety.

What Are the Common Signs That Your Dryer Vent Needs Cleaning?

Common indicators include clothes taking longer to dry, a burning smell while the dryer is operating, a very hot dryer top, and excessive lint accumulation around the dryer or vent exit. Ignoring these signs can lead to increased fire risk and energy waste.

Can I Clean My Dryer Vent Myself?

While it’s possible to clean parts of the dryer vent yourself, professional cleaning ensures that all components are properly inspected and cleaned. DIY efforts may miss spots or fail to address underlying issues that a trained technician would catch. Regular professional maintenance by Comfort Experts Heating & Cooling provides a thorough and risk-free cleaning method for your dryer vents.
