The #1 Cause of Home Fires is from Failure to Property Clean the Dryer Vents

• Fire damage from clothes dryers is responsible for nearly $100 million in property damages every year

• Regular inspection and maintenance of dryers and dryer vents are recommended by all dryer manufacturers

Clogged dryer vents are a major fire hazard. The lint that is possibly stuck inside the vent prevents the hot air from escaping as the dryer operates. Lint is very combustible and flammable. According to the U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) dryer vent fires make up 2,900 fires that are reported each year, five deaths, 100 injuries and 35 million dollars in property loss, stating that failure to clean the dryer and pipes was the leading cause.

When dryers are used constantly each day, the backup of lint can become incredibly dangerous. The USFA says if clothes are taking longer than normal to become dry then it is a signal the vent pipe may be clogged and ready for a professional cleaning, although it is suggested dryer vents are inspected and cleaned every three months. If the dryer has to work harder to get the clothes dry that add wear and tear on to the dry making it work harder increasing energy use. Over time, this will wear the machine down quicker, forcing a user to purchase a new upgrade or constantly seek repairs.  Advanced Air Service Group personnel have over 100 years of experience cleaning dryer vent pipes and we have NADCA certification on cleaning and can get it done right!
