Dryer vent cleaning pays for itself in energy savings alone; combine this with other benefits and there is no reason to neglect this important home maintenance task
Dryer vent cleaning is very important appliance maintenance. Dryer vent cleaning improves dryer efficiency to save consumers up to $300 per year. Cleaning dryer vents eliminates a fire hazard while extending the life of a clothes dryer.
With so many great reasons to clean dryer vents, the Wizard of Chester County is amazed at how many people neglect this important home maintenance task. In spite of all the media attention warning consumers about clogged dryer vents being a fire hazard, many still do not have it done. The Chester County Wizard has another approach to motivate people; energy savings.
“Clogged dryer vents make dryers cost substantially more money to operate,” said Gerry Rhen, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard of Chester County. “Clothes dryers are one of the top 5 energy users in American homes. There is no “energy star” clothes dryer; however, newer models do have some energy saving features.”
To increase energy savings even more, Gerry Rhen provides the following tips to his customers:
Do only full loads of laundry
Do back to back loads to use residual warm air from the previous load
Do not overload the dryer
Try line drying some laundry, like sheets and towels.
The Wizard’s number one tip for saving energy in the laundry room is regular dryer vent cleaning service. “When dryer vents are clogged with lint, there is no way for heat and moisture to escape; therefore, laundry takes longer to dry,” said Rhen. “Increased drying time is the most common warning sign that dryer vent cleaning is needed.”
Dryer manufacturers and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission recommend dryer vent cleaning at least once a year for average homes. “If you are a pet owner or if you have a large family then you will need to have dryer vent cleaning done more often,” said Rhen.
Dryer Vent Wizard, Get the Lint Out is a member of the National Fire Protection Association and the largest chain of dryer vent cleaning, repair, replacement and alteration specialists in the U.S. with nearly 60 franchisees in major markets.
