(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 29, 2012 ) Highlands Ranch CO – The Highlands Ranch Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard is on a mission to reduce dryer fires in his community by increasing public awareness about the importance of dryer vent maintenance. “This is the time of year the frequency of home fires and carbon monoxide poisonings increases,” said Mitchell Chesney, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard. “Prevention is key to avoiding these home hazards.”
Neglected dryer vent systems and faulty dryer vents cause over 17,000 dryer fires reported annually. National Fire Prevention Week is observed in October, a time of the year when the number of home fires is on the rise. The Wizard works hard all year to make a difference in his neighborhood.
According to the Highlands Ranch Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard, poorly vented clothes dryers will cause substantially higher energy bills. Gas dryers must be properly vented to release carbon monoxide from the home. Poorly vented gas dryers can allow dangerous levels of this deadly gas to enter the home. Here are some tips the Wizard provides to his customers while servicing their dryer vent system:
• Clean the lint screen or filter before or after each load of laundry
• Make sure your dryer vent system meets city, state and manufacturer’s safety codes
• Replace plastic or flexible foil systems with sold metal material
• Keep the dryer lint screen clean and wash it every few months with soap and water to remove residue from fabric softener sheets
• Have professional dryer vent lint cleaning done each year
• Don’t store combustibles, chemical cleaning products or chemical soaked rags near your clothes dryer or other gas appliances
• Do not leave the house or go to sleep when the dryer is running
• Check the dryer vent outside often for lint build up, blockage, damage or freezing
The Highlands Ranch Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard recommends professional dryer vent cleaning to prevent fires, save energy and prolong the life of the dryer. In addition to cleaning dryer vents, Chesney will also check belts and rollers inside the back of the dryer to be sure everything is in good working order. Worn belts can cause the drum to become unbalanced and rub against other parts, causing the dryer to throw a spark and ignite the lint accumulated in the dryer vent.
Dryer Vent Wizard is licensed and certified to inspect, repair and install new dryer vent systems. Service by the Wizard will provide peace of mind knowing the dryer is operating safely and efficiently. Mitchell Chesney serves homeowners and business owners in the Denver Metro area, Highlands Ranch, Aurora and nearby cities and communities.
