(EstateNewsWire.com, June 13, 2012 ) Kansas City West, KS – The Dryer Vent Cleaning Kansas City West Wizard and the Underwriters Laboratories (UL) recommends cleaning dryer vent systems regularly to promote dryer safety and performance. The UL is an independent testing laboratory that establishes standards for residential, commercial and industrial electrical products and their safety. Harold Bert is the owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, a dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation company that also works to educate consumers about dryer fire prevention.
Harold Bert explains, “About 80% of all homes have a clothes dryer which means that there are about 82 million potential fire hazards out there. A dryer fire occurs when lint accumulates in the dryer vent system, reducing air flow and causing overheating.”
Bert also explained that a clothes dryer requires proper air flow to work efficiently. “The harder the dryer has to work to perform its job, the more energy it uses. A poorly maintained dryer vent system can make the dryer cost an additional $300 per year to operate,” said Bert.
The Dryer Vent Cleaning Kansas City West wizard recommends professional dryer vent cleaning and inspections; however, he knows that there some do-it-yourself homeowners who would rather not pay someone for something they feel they can do. For this reason, he talked about a special dryer vent brush available for homeowners for cleaning their dryer vent system. He also shared many other uses for this long handled, flexible tool. “The dryer vent cleaning brush is also useful for cleaning the condenser coils on the refrigerator, which is another great energy saving tip. People are also using it to retrieve lost items from underneath appliances and cleaning under and behind heavy furniture like desks and bookcases.”
Do-it-yourself homeowners should be aware of how critical it is to do a thorough dryer vent cleaning, accessing all areas of the dryer vent system. Those whose dryers are located on an outside wall with a very short dryer duct should be OK; however, some systems go through the roof or have bends and turns which make total access difficult. “Dryer lint doesn’t miss spots, so the spot you miss could be a problem,” said Bert. “We have special tools and equipment to access the entire dryer vent system to provide a complete cleaning.”
Harold Bert is dedicated to educating his customers to prevent dryer fires while he provides dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation services in his community. Bert is happy to spend the necessary time to answer any questions his customer has, at no additional charge. Visit http://www.dryerventcleaningkansascitywest.com/ to learn more.
