Dryer Not Working Properly?

Most homeowners forget that the dryer vent collects lint and sometimes laundry in the chute that clogs it up and reduces the efficiency and life of your dryer. Take a look at what was found in a recent customers dryer vent who chose Artisan Design and Build for Dryer Vent Cleaning.

Lint build up in the dryer vents is an extreme fire hazard. The Consumer Product Safety Commission estimates that over 24,000 clothes dryer related fires occur each year, causing an estimated $97 million in property loss. Excessive lint build up also causes the dryer to work harder resulting in higher operation costs and increased repair bills.

Dryer Manufactures, fire departments, and The US Consumer Product Safety Commission agree that annual maintenance is extremely important. In fact many insurance companies are now mandating that dryer vents in condominium complexes, town homes, and other facilities be cleaned and repaired if necessary, to prevent any risk of fire.
