Important Facts!
Home Fires - According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, over 16,000 homes fires each year are caused by dryer vents with a build up of lint and debris. When these build ups occur, the dryer can overheat, which can result in fires in the dryer or dryer duct.
Carbon Monoxide - Another problem created by blocked dryer vents serving gas dryers is the risk of carbon monoxide leaking into your home. These colorless and odorless carbon monoxide fumes can be fatal.
Wear and Tear - Clothes Dryers with blocked vents run less efficiently, which can over time wear down your dryer or make it run significantly slower. When this happens, you use more energy and this costs your family money.
Nesting Rodents and Pests - Animals nesting is another frequent cause of dryer vent blockage. This can lead to other problems such as fires, carbon monoxide poisoning and higher energy costs.
