#1 Best Dryer Vent Cleaning in Delaware
Clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of house fires. We clear the whole line.
Lint builds up in the duct between your dryer and the outside wall, and once that line is restricted the dryer runs hot, works harder and becomes a real fire risk. Clogged dryer vents are one of the leading causes of house fires in the country. Even brand new construction is at risk: most new homes are not built in a way that prevents dryer exhaust backup, with long vent runs, sharp bends and rooftop terminations that trap lint from day one. We clear the full run , not just the first few feet , and confirm strong airflow at the exterior vent before we finish.
