WHAT CAUSES DRYER FIRES?
Dryer vent cleaning is crucial due to the presence of highly combustible lint, which is produced during the drying process. Typically, this lint is forcefully expelled from the dryer via the exhaust vent. However, if lint accumulates and obstructs the dryer exhaust, it restricts the airflow and leads to the buildup of lint and heat within both the appliance and the venting system. These conditions become ideal for a fire hazard to occur.
LINT INSIDE THE CLOTHES DRYER
Many people believe that simply cleaning the lint trap after every load is sufficient to prevent lint buildup inside the dryer and venting. However, a considerable amount of lint escapes the lint trap and accumulates within the dryer cabinet, including on the heating element. This buildup can lead to overheating and increase the risk of a fire outbreak. To ensure your family’s safety from dryer fires, Lint Check offers comprehensive Clothes Dryer Inspections and Dryer Fire Hazard Prevention Services.
PROPER DRYER VENTING
Using plastic or foil transition dryer vents can pose a significant fire hazard, potentially leading to devastating consequences. To mitigate this risk and ensure safety, Lint Check™ offers a range of laundry room hazard prevention services. These include replacing old plastic or foil transition vents with durable metal alternatives, as well as conducting comprehensive retrofits for the entire dryer exhaust vent system. By opting for these services, you can significantly enhance the safety of your dryer and protect against the potential dangers of fire or even loss of life.
BIRD'S NEST IN YOUR DRYER VENT
Lint Check™ offers expert dryer vent cleaning services to remove bird nests and prevent bird mites from infiltrating your home. These nests, composed of flammable materials like twigs, dry grass, and leaves, not only block airflow but also pose a fire hazard and risk of overheating the dryer motor. With our comprehensive solutions, including the installation of Pest Guard Products, we ensure your home is protected from bird mite infestations and potential fire hazards. Choose Lint Check™ for a safer and more efficient dryer vent system.
