"Needed my dryer vent cleaned. When Ned called I explained to him that I had two 90 degree angles. He assured me he had all the equipment needed to handle this job. When the two men arrived my husband showed them a picture of the two angles in the vent. One guy didn't speak english and walked away. Didn't even want to look at the picture. The other guy who spoke limited english just told us to call his boss. We told him his boss had already assured us they could do the job. Now for all the equipment they brought - a generator that they couldn't even get started. We have an outlet out back and told them to use it. They then just put a small hose in the vent which was blowing air. I was in the closet with the dryer and could hear the hose as it came in. It stopped at the first angle and couldn't bend to go any further. They then left. I was also told that they would bag up any lint that came out on the lawn. Big surprise - there wasn't any. My vent is still clogged."

Yes, dryer vent cleaning is absolutely worth it. It’s a key safety measure, preventing potential dryer fires caused by lint buildup. Beyond safety, regular cleaning improves your dryer's efficiency, leading to faster drying times and lower energy bills. It also extends the lifespan of the dryer, saving you money on repairs or premature replacement. The average cost of cleaning is a small investment for the significant benefits and peace of mind it provides.
Yes. You should contact a specialist for thorough dryer vent cleaning. Licensed plumbers, HVAC technicians, or companies dedicated to dryer vent cleaning have the expertise and equipment to manage every vent configuration, including challenging setups like roof-installed or extended duct systems. Reaching out to a qualified professional ensures both safety and efficiency throughout the cleaning process.
While it might seem like a quick solution, using a leaf blower to clean your dryer vent is not recommended. Using a leaf blower often pushes lint deeper into the vent or causes it to become more compacted, creating a worse clog. This can also damage the vent material, especially flexible ducts, leading to tears and further fire hazards. For effective and safe cleaning, a specialized dryer vent cleaning kit with a brush or a powerful vacuum with a long hose attachment is preferred, or even better, hiring a professional.
Clean your dryer vent at least once per year to keep your dryer operating efficiently and prevent fires. If your dryer is located far from an exterior wall, increase the frequency of cleanings to twice a year. Doing laundry daily for a large household requires an increase to quarterly cleanings to keep the vents and ducts clear of debris.
You cannot operate a standard dryer without a properly attached vent hose. An unconnected vent forces hot, moist air into your home, which compromises indoor air quality and accelerates mold and mildew growth. This unsafe condition not only raises the risk of fires but also leads to extensive repair expenses, as it breaches local building codes that require external venting.
