Dryer Vent Cleaning Service – Denver & Boulder, Colorado
As you use your clothes dryer, the dryer’s lint filter captures only 40-60% of the lint. The remaining lint is sent through the vent or trapped in the exhaust vent pipe. Lint collected inside the dryer vent blocks the air flow so that moisture can’t escape. A dryer with a clogged vent can take 3 to 4 times as long to dry a load, costing over $3.00 per load instead of $0.75 with unobstructed vents. Dryer vent cleaning reduces the amount of time it takes to dry a load.
A severely clogged dryer vent can also become a serious fire hazard. If your dryer is unable to vent the hot air outside, it will produce an unsafe amount of heat, which can increase the fire risk. Every year, an estimated 15,000 house fires are caused by clothes dryers. All dryer manufacturers recommend an annual inspection and cleaning. Contact a professional duct cleaning company immediately if:
- Clothes take more than one cycle to dry.
- Clothes are very hot after a drying cycle.
- No lint is visible on the lint screen.
- The dryer shuts itself off repeatedly during a cycle.

How to Prevent Your Dryer Vent from Causing A House Fire?
- Clean the lint screen before and after drying each load. Wash the lint screen once every 3 months to remove fabric softener residue.
- Have your clothes dryer vent cleaned by a reputable duct cleaning company every year.
- Never leave the house or go to bed with your dryer running.
- Never dry clothing or fabric on which there is anything flammable (alcohol, cooking oils, gasoline, spot removers, dry-cleaning solvents, etc.). Flammable substances give off vapors that catch fire.
