Dryer Vent Cleaning
Maintaining your dryer vents is important, whether that’s through regular cleaning or repair. Having your dryer vent cleaned is recommended every year.
A dirty dryer vent can cause the dryer to work less efficiently. If the vent is not able to properly vent the hot and humid air from your dryer, clothes may take longer to dry. This may also lead to higher energy bills as it takes more time to dry your clothes. Additionally, this can also cause your dryer to generate additional wear and tear working harder than it otherwise should. Dirty dryer vents can promote mold growth in Southwest Florida.
