When was the last time you had your dryer vent cleaned? If your answer is “never” or “I’m not sure,” you’re not alone—but you could be risking a serious fire hazard.
At Service Guys, we’ve seen firsthand how neglected dryer vents lead to dangerous lint buildup, reduced appliance performance, and skyrocketing utility bills. The good news? Professional dryer vent cleaning is fast, affordable, and could save you from major headaches.
???? The Hidden Danger Lurking in Your Laundry Room
Every time you run your dryer, lint and debris from your clothes travel into the exhaust vent. While your lint trap catches some of it, a large amount escapes and builds up inside your dryer duct over time. This buildup restricts airflow and turns your dryer into a potential fire starter.
According to the U.S. Fire Administration, nearly 3,000 home fires are caused by dryers every year—and the leading cause is failure to clean them.
???? Signs You Need Dryer Vent Cleaning
If you notice any of the following, it’s time to schedule a cleaning:
-
Clothes taking longer to dry than usual
-
A burning smell when the dryer is running
-
Excess lint behind or around the dryer
-
Dryer feels hot to the touch after a cycle
-
Vent hood flap doesn’t open properly
These are all signs that your vent is clogged and your system is working harder than it should.
