Alexandria Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard Makes Home Healthier

(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 06, 2012 ) Alexandria, VA -- So many people are health conscious in these days but overlook a main source of allergens lurking behind the dryer or in the dryer vent system. Service by the Alexandria Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard promotes healthier indoor air quality while eliminating a fire hazard and improving dryer performance.

Doug and Janice Bittner own Dryer Vent Wizard, specializing in dryer vent cleaning and new dryer vent installation. They enjoy building relationships with their customers as they provide vital information about dryer vent maintenance. Though preventing dryer fires and reducing energy costs are their main focus, there are many other benefits to having dryer vent cleaning performed regularly.

Over time, fittings which securely hold the dryer vent hose in place can work loose and lead to problems, especially for allergy sufferers. Heated, moist air from the dryer escapes into the house rather than out through the vent hose making a breeding ground for all sorts of mold and bacteria.

The Alexandria Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard warns residents that restricted air flow caused by faulty venting and lint accumulation increases the potential of a dryer fire. The Wizard has seen a number of problems with customers who have old, outdated dryer vent systems. He will perform a complete inspection and airflow analysis, and install a new dryer vent in accordance with current building and safety standards.

Some dryers are vented through the ceiling and here again is potential danger for the allergy sufferer. Water can enter the vent and into the lint clog. This will breed mold and bacteria that will also back up into the home with decreased air flow through the dryer vent hose. The importance of regular dryer vent cleaning is vital to continued good health in the home.

Some older homes vent through the floor into the crawlspace creating a situation that needs to be regularly controlled by a dryer vent service. Hot, moist air and lint vented into the crawl space or basement is a virtual breeding ground for allergens inside the living space. A dryer vent service technician can address and fix these problems as well as the potential for a fire in the crawl space or basement of the home. All clothes dryers should be vented outdoors, not into the craw space or attic.

With increased humidity and mold also come foul odors. These can reach intolerable levels especially during the closed in days of the fall and winter season. A qualified dryer vent service technician will not only help keep the home free of mold and bacteria, but also eliminate danger of fire as well as bad odor.

Dryer Vent Wizard eliminates a number of home and health hazards while performing an important service. Doug and Janice Bittner provide peace of mind to residents and business owners in Northern Virginia, Alexandria, Arlington, Sterling and nearby cities.
