Riverbank Dryer Vent Service Wizard Warns Consumers about Dryer Lint Build up

(EstateNewsWire.com, January 03, 2013 ) Riverbank, CA – The Riverbank Dryer Vent Service Wizard warns consumers about the danger associated with a clogged dryer vent. Dryer vent cleaning should be a high priority appliance maintenance task; however, it is most often overlooked. “Lint accumulation in dryer ducts is a major cause of dryer related fires,” said James Smith, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard.

James Smith explains to all his customers how 40 percent of lint from drying laundry escapes the lint screen and becomes trapped inside the dryer and dryer ducts. “Failure to maintain the dryer vent system causes the dryer to overwork and use more energy,” says Smith. “Dryer lint build-up causes wear and tear on the dryer motor as the system overheats and becomes a serious fire hazard.”

When asked what homeowners can do to prevent dryer related hazards, James explained, “Replace dryer vent systems made of flexible foil, plastic or vinyl material with solid metal vents. Remember that even the very best dryer vent system requires maintenance. Dryer vent service by the Wizard is the best way to prevent dryer fires and improve dryer performance.”

Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.californiadryerguy.com/) only installs dryer ducts made of rigid metal which reduces lint build-up. Longer dryer ducts with bends and turns can cause moisture to condense, allowing lint to become trapped. When dryer lint build ups and reduces airflow, it causes the dryer to overwork and cost substantially more to operate.

The Dryer Vent Service Wizard explains how leaks in a dryer vent system can cause excess humidity in homes and create an environment for mold and mildew growth. Homeowners with poorly vented gas dryers also risk carbon monoxide poisoning. Annual dryer vent cleaning is recommended to keep clothes dryers running efficiently and safely.”
