Dryer Vent Cleaning | Dryer Vent Cleaning
Dryer vent cleaning will clear any lint and dust blocking the path from the dryer to the outside vent. If not addressed, a clogged dryer vent can lead to longer drying times, higher energy bills, and pose a potential fire hazard. Our vent cleaning method can be applied to residential and commercial buildings, including high-rise units. We utilize a high-pressure air system and an agitation device. The agitation technique loosens any built-up lint, dust, and debris, blowing it back toward the entry point in a reverse motion. We combine our innovative and powerful rotary brushing system with high-powered industrial suction (using a HEPA Filter) to gather the lint. Depending on your property and needs, we will decide which method(s) will be the most beneficial for your case. Our process is safe and highly effective while remaining respectful to the environment and your home or business. To ensure nothing is blocking the system, we will check the access of the indoor and outdoor vent openings. Using our high-powered suction system, our vent cleaning process ensures that excess lint does not spread throughout your house, business, or yard. After the vents are clean, we will inspect the dryer’s interior and clean any lint hiding in the nooks and crannies of the system, thus allowing the dryer to perform optimally. If your dryer needs maintenance or cleaning, contact us at (604) 341-3337 or [email protected].
Dryer Fires
The leading cause of home clothes dryer and washer fires is failure to clean them. Dryer vent education may seem like a minimal thought, but a dryer fire can legitimately burn down your property. Take the time to truly understand how and why to get them cleaned and maintained.
Dryer Installation & Safety
Have your dryer installed and serviced by a professional.
Lint Filters
Do not use the dryer without a lint filter. The lint filter is pivotal in stopping lint from entering the vent. Despite having a lint filter, lint and debris still does make it’s way down, but it has a substantial role in keeping it clean.
Lint Filter Cleaning
Ensure you clean the lint filter before or after each load of laundry. Also, make sure to remove lint that has collected around the drum. You can use your hand to collect it into a pile and toss it in the garbage.
Venting Material
Rigid or flexible metal venting material should sustain proper air flow and drying time.
Air Restriction and outside Vent Care
Ensure the air exhaust vent pipe is not restricted, and the outdoor vent flap will open when the dryer operates. Once a year, or more often, if you notice that it is taking longer than normal for your clothes to dry, get Freeflo to clean out the vent.
Dryer Care
Keep dryers in good working order. A professional should inspect gas dryers to ensure that the gas line and connection are intact and leak-free.
Best Practices
Ensure the right plug and outlet are used, and the machine is connected properly. Follow the manufacturer’s operating instructions, and don’t overload your dryer. Turn the dryer off if you leave home or go to bed.
