What is Dryer Vent Cleaning?


Dryer vent cleaning is the cleaning of the dryer exhaust line from the back of the dryer to the exterior of the home.

Why Is Dryer Vent Cleaning Important?


According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), over 17,000 structural fires occur each year as a result of a dryer fire. The NFPA further states that the #1 cause of a dryer malfunction is not cleaning out the dryer vent, which accounts for 1/3 of all dryer fires. It also increases the efficiency of the dryer itself. The lint and debris that collects in the clothes dryer duct causes your dryer to work harder and run longer. A clogged vent could contribute to high levels of carbon monoxide or even cause a fire.

NOTE: Metal covers last 2-4 years longer than plastic as plastic dry rots if exposed to sun.

The contaminants that infiltrate your ductwork will build up over time. As air passes through your ductwork it is circulating those containments throughout all areas of your home. In fact, air circulates throughout your home up to 5 to 7 times per hour, which means those same containments composed of dust, mold, dirt, construction debris, bacteria, dust mites, soot, nicotine, pet dander and debris are being transported are circulated too.


Additionally, the build up of containments in your ductwork restricts air flow causing your HVAC system to work harder and shortening its life span.

Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Process


A power vacuum truck is connected to the duct behind the dryer. This puts the dryer duct under negative suction.

1.

STEP ONE

2.

STEP TWO

Next, our technician will go to the exterior, the point of exhaust located on the outside of the building.

Our agitation whip is sent through the dryer pipe to loosen all lint and debris.

3.

STEP THREE

4.

STEP FOUR

As the lint and debris becomes dislodged, the negative suction pulls it back into the vacuum truck. Leaving no mess behind and ensuring a proper dryer vent cleaning.

How Our Process Is Different From The Rest


The only fail proof way to guarantee the dryer duct is free of lint and debris is to ensure the dryer duct is under 100% negative suction. In order to get the dryer duct under complete suction, the dryer must be disconnected from the duct and then the duct must be connected to the vacuum truck as we send our agitation whips in the exhaust point of the dryer duct, leaving no mess. We do not use a leaf blower or drill powdered brush, as these methods often cause clogs.


We have the proper equipment to ensure this process is done properly to help prevent a dryer fire.

What Are Bird Guards And How Do They Relate To Dryer Vents?


Birds and other small animals love dryer vents. They can build nests in the line causing serious clogs. You can discourage animals from claiming your dryer vent line as their new warm toasty home by installing the proper guard. Additionally, guards help to prevent back pressure from the outside wind in your dryer duct. Back pressure can cause carbon monoxide to enter your home. At Hygienic Air, we offer both metal and plastic guards for installation depending on the homeowner's goal and budget.

Dryer Vent Repairs / Installs

Often, dryer vents require repair. Over time, dryer pipes can become loose, sag, or even completely disconnect-especially after a new roof installation. When the dryer pipe disconnects, it allows lint and moisture to accumulate in the attic or wall. At Hygienic Air, we offer comprehensive services to bring your dryer vent back to code compliance, ensuring that it exhausts to the exterior of your home or business."

Improper Materials Used for Dryer Vent:

Whether the dryer pipe was mended DIY as a quick fix or by an uncertified professional, we often see plastic, duct tape and even too thin of gauge pipe to connect the dryer vent. Hygienic Air will bring all of these issues back to code compliance, so you won't have to worry about fire safety.

Attic Lint Accumulation:

When the dryer vent pipe disconnects or has gaps, lint-laden air can escape into the attic space. Over time, this lint accumulates on insulation, wooden structures, and other materials.

Lint is highly flammable, and its presence in the attic increases the risk of a fire hazard.

Wall Lint Buildup:

If the disconnected vent runs through a wall cavity, lint can find its way into the wall. This hidden lint buildup poses several dangers:

Fire Risk:

Lint is combustible, and if it accumulates near electrical wires or other heat sources within the wall, it can ignite.

Reduced Efficiency: A blocked vent reduces airflow, making your dryer less efficient and increasing drying times.

Moisture Issues:

Lint can trap moisture, leading to mold growth or structural damage.

Addressing disconnected dryer vents promptly ensures safety, energy efficiency, and proper functioning of your dryer. If you suspect any issues, consider professional inspection and repair. Stay safe!

Dryerbox Exhaust Receptacle

In the past, homeowners had to put up with the inefficient venting of their dryer appliance exhaust due to numerous friction causing bends or kinks in the flex duct hose that connects the dryer to the wall exhaust pipe. Lint build-up and a fire hazard are the unwelcome by- products of these annoying bends. To accommodate these flow restrictive bends, the dryer appliance had to be located five to six inches away from the wall, taking away valuable living area.

Give the Dryer Some Space

Choosing the Dryerbox recessed exhaust receptacle makes for a simpler, cleaner install that truly finishes the laundry right. You'll protect the exhaust hose neatly in the wall, and you'll be able to place the dryer flush to the wall without crushing the hose or otherwise restricting airflow. Adding this receptacle makes homes roomier and more efficient. It also makes them safer by reducing the fire hazard associated with dryer venting problems. It's even UL Classified for a 1-hour wall.
