Improper care of the dryer vent system is a leading cause of residential fires across the nation
Roslyn NY – The Roslyn Dryer Vent Repair Wizard has encountered several types of dryer vent systems installed in homes. Unfortunately, many do not meet current safety standards. Dryer vent repair or replacement may be necessary to eliminate several dryer related hazards.
Bob Dougherty, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, is familiar with several dryer vent configurations commonly used in homes and commercial businesses with clothes dryers. Many homes have vents going out the wall directly behind the dryer. While this type is often the safest and most efficient, restricted air flow from lint accumulation or a nesting rodent can cause overheating and lead to a dryer fire.
Ceiling dryer vent systems have become increasingly popular in newer homes but they can also be quite hazardous for homeowners who are not aware of the need for dryer vent repair and maintenance. The dryer duct leading up through the roof and the cap on the roof must be inspected regularly for damage by a dryer vent service technician to insure safety for the home and family.
Home insurers are aware of the existing danger of dryer fires so many are requiring policy holders to schedule dryer vent inspection and service. Insurance providers agree that the number one way to minimize the risk of dryer fires is proper dryer vent installation and maintenance.
