(EstateNewsWire.com, August 11, 2012 ) Garden City, ID – Dryer vent cleaning prevents dryer fires and improves dryer performance. The Dryer Vent Cleaning Garden City Wizard was saddened to hear of a dryer fire that destroyed an apartment building and left 30 families homeless. “Thankfully, everyone escaped safely; however, the damage resulted in a total loss for the property owner,” said Mike Alder, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard of Treasure Valley
Over 17,000 dryer fires occur annually, resulting in deaths, injuries and $100 million in property damages. These statistics prompted Mike Alder to purchase his Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.dryerventcleaningboiseid.com/) franchise in 2006 so he could make a difference in his community by providing the necessary service to make clothes dryers safer and greener.
Alder is especially concerned with dryer vent systems in apartment buildings and attached condos, where more homes and lives are at risk. Failure to maintain dryer vent systems is the largest cause of dryer fires, but improper dryer vent installation can also be hazardous. “Vinyl and flexible foil dryer ducts need to be replaced with rigid metal to meet current safety standards,” said Alder.
Mike Alder urges landlords and property managers to have their dryer vents inspected and serviced at least once a year. “When tenants don’t properly maintain their dryer vent systems, the landlord can be liable for whatever happens,” said Alder. “In large apartment buildings, many lives are at risk if a dryer fire should occur.”
One investor, who owns a very large apartment building said, “I never really gave this a thought. I appreciate Mike’s advice; he explained how easily a dryer fire can happen. I learned that a clothes dryer is actually more likely to cause a fire than a furnace or stove! I’m going to set an appointment with Mike to inspect my building and my home as well.”
Dryer vent cleaning is not just intended for single family residents and homeowners. The Wizard specializes in all configurations of dryer vent systems and his customers include landlords and property managers, homeowner’s associations and commercial businesses like pet shelters, beauty salons and public laundries.
