(EstateNewsWire.com, April 12, 2013 ) Concord NH – With so many dryer vent cleaning services advertised on the internet and all the media attention focused on dryer fire prevention, the Wizard finds it amazing how many people neglect this important maintenance task. Even more amazing is the number of dryer fires occurring each year. Dryer vent cleaning provides many benefits including dryer fire prevention, energy savings and improved dryer performance.
Over 17,000 dryer fires are reported each year, with failure to clean dryer vents being the number one cause. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard recalls 3 residential dryer fires that he could have prevented had he been called for service:
A dryer fire led to the temporary evacuation of a hotel. The fire was quickly extinguished and no injuries were reported. Damage was estimated at around $1,500.
A clogged dryer vent caused a fire in an elderly woman’s home. It was lucky her home health aide was there to unplug the burning dryer, call 911 and get her safely out of the home. Damages were estimated at $7,500.
About 25 firefighters responded when a pile of rags used to refinish a floor spontaneously combusted while the resident was asleep. He was alone in the home when the fire broke out. Firefighters advise residents to be careful of how they store rags soaked in combustible substances. They are so dangerous that they could also ignite in the clothes dryer even after they have been washed.
The Wizard (http://www.nhdryervent.com) enjoys providing tips and information to his customers to promote safety. He tells them about warning signs to look for and recommends annual dryer vent inspection and service to ensure dryer safety and efficient performance.
Webb Dickson, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard is concerned about the frequency of dryer fires today. There are many different companies who provide dryer vent cleaning and installation services. The internet is flooded with articles and blogs all warning consumers about the danger of clogged dryer vents; not to mention the increase in utility expenses when clothes dryers are not venting properly.
Webb Dickson advises his customers to have their dryer vent system checked and professionally cleaned annually. Dryer vents should be properly installed to meet current safety guidelines. By law, all gas dryers in the United States must be vented to the outdoors.
