The Science behind Dryer Vent Cleaning:

Dryer vent cleaning is the cleaning of the shaft that expels warm air and lint from your dryer to the outside of your home or commercial setting.  If this shaft is obstructed or too long, then your clothes dryer will struggle to dry clothes in a timely manner. 

Are your clothes not drying in one cycle? 95% of the time your dryer vent needs to be cleaned out.  Don’t rush to buy another dryer!  This is very common.  Let Healthy Homes save you some money here.  The best way to tell if a dryer vent needs to be cleaned:

1-   After a cycle of drying, the top of the dryer is very warm.

2-   Dryer lint screen warnings pop up on your newer dryer.

3-   Moisture builds up in your dryer.

4-   Clothes take multiple cycles to get dry.

Dryer vent cleaning is a growing industry in Florida.  Dryer vent cleaning is something that should be done at least every 5 years, but ideal to do once a year.  For those of you who love to do handyman projects on your own, this is a 20 minute task that could save your house from catching fire, and/or save you the expense of buying a new set of appliances.  Below I will show you how we do it.  If you feel comfortable and capable of doing this yourself, then by all means get to it.  If you would rather have a professional come out and take care of it for you, give us a call.  Keep in mind that this task will take less than 20 minutes to do.  If companies are charging any more than $100 for the service, maybe you should shop around. Dryer vent cleaning isn’t brain surgery, so don’t get wrangled into a high service charge for such a simple task.
