dryer vent cleaning
Dryer Vent Cleaning services in peoria, il and surrounding areas.
There is a hidden danger spot in most homes today. Chances are you don’t look at it or even think about it. It’s the vent from your clothes dryer. Over time, it fills with lint that slips past your dryer’s filter and builds up in the hose and pipes that vent the warm air outdoors. As the flamable lint builds up it can become a fire hazard in your home that can ignite at any time.
A dryer with restricted air flow also runs significantly longer, causing utility costs to rise, increasing the need for repairs and decreasing the life of the dryer. By cleaning your dryer vent, Deputy DUCT can help ensure your clothes dryer is both safe and energy efficient.
Don’t wait until it’s too late.
In the Topical Fire Report Series, the US Fire Administration’s National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) states that 84% of dryer fires were found in residential dwellings. The leading cause remains the same, FAILURE TO CLEAN!
Our dryer vent cleaning process
We make sure our Dryer Vent Cleaning process is thorough. Our technicians start by removing and cleaning the lint trap. They also topically clean the back of the dryer where lint tends to accumulate. Next, the dryer vent and flexible ducting that is attached to the wall are visually inspected.
Once these steps are completed we connect our powerful HEPA vacuum system to the dryer vent duct. While the powerful vacuum is working we agitate using an auger and brush inside the vent. This helps remove blockages.
