Dryer Vent Safety in Cary and Apex NC

One highly overlooked, yet remarkably under-estimated service that AdvantaClean provides for homes and businesses is dryer vent cleaning.  This cost effective service not only lowers energy bills, it also lowers the risk of fires!  For any home or business owner, it is recommended having dryer vents cleaned once a year.  But apart from this rule of thumb there are several warning signs that can mean it is time for a clean!

Dryer vents need a complete cleaning if:

• There is an increase in the energy bill!
• Dryers are hot to the touch after running.
• More than one cycle is needed to dry a load of clothes.
• Clothes smell “musty” after being in the dryer.

The dryer vents are the ductwork which connects a dryer to the outside world. These vents can become clogged with debris over time, mostly clothing fiber like cotton, polyester and wool. These highly flammable materials can be a major hazard to the integrity of a building, and its resistance to fires.

Cleaning dryer ducts can reduce fire hazard levels and:

• Increase the efficiency of the appliance, lowering energy bills.
• Extend the life of the appliance, and of your home or business!
• Clothes will dry more quickly and evenly.
• Reduce the risk of mold or mildew growth on clothes and in the building.
• Give peace of mind by knowing that fire risk is greatly reduced!

If any of the above factors are showing up in your dryer, do not waste time in calling AdvantaClean Environmental of Cary/ Apex to remedy the situation.  Our team of licensed professionals will efficiently handle the vent cleaning, and make sure the building is secure from any potential of fire damage caused by the neglect of dryer vents.  Call us TODAY to have your vents assessed, and be assured that your home or business will continue to be safe and sound.

You family and your home depend on it.
