Why Dryer Vent Cleaning Is Critical for Your Safety
According to the U.S. Fire Administration, there are approximately 2,900 home dryer fires reported each year, causing an estimated 5 deaths, 100 injuries, and $35 million in property loss. The leading cause? Failure to clean the dryer vent.
Lint and debris accumulate in your dryer vent over time, restricting airflow and creating a serious fire hazard. A clogged dryer vent also forces your dryer to work harder, increasing energy consumption and wear on the appliance.
