Fire Prevention Tips are Part of the Service by Plymouth Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard

(EstateNewsWire.com, December 21, 2012 ) Plymouth MI – The Plymouth Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard suggests fire prevention tips while servicing clothes dryers and dryer ducts. Too many homeowners are not aware that cleaning dryer vents is the number one way to prevent dryer fires. Clothes dryers are the most likely appliance to start a fire, with over 17,000 dryer related fires occurring annually.

When the Wizard read about a dryer fire that caused over 150,000 in property damages he was very upset. The family of six was left homeless, but they were lucky to escape without injury. Dryer vent cleaning service may have prevented this disaster and saved their home.

Residents were asleep when the fire started. A clogged dryer vent caused the dryer to overheat and materials stored nearby to ignite. The fire spread up the wall and into the attic, causing significant damage to the home.

• Gas Dryer – A licensed plumber should inspect the gas fittings and flex hose for gas leaks

• Never leave home or go to sleep when the dryer is running

• Keep the lint filter clean and inspect it regularly for tears or damage
