Dry Your Clothes Faster with Dryer Vent Cleaning in Manhattan

A fire can be caused by a clogged dryer vent—lint builds up in the dryer vent, narrowing it and restricting the airflow. As a result, dry lint isn’t removed as well from the dryer, it starts accumulating near the motor and the heating element. It can combust and start a fire. Multiple factors contribute to the possible consequences of the fire. Among the crucial ones are fire safety of the dryer vent itself and of the flexible hose.

Factors to consider when cleaning a dryer vent:

— lint build-up in the dryer itself;

— whether the wiring is up to the safety standards;

— whether a backdrop damper is installed and if it is in good condition: to prevent the blowing in of carbon dioxide and lint, as well as the excessive cooling of the dryer vent, which leads to condensation on the walls and more lint build-up;

— whether a bird guard is installed to prevent the dryer vent from being blocked by nesting birds.
