(EstateNewsWire.com, August 15, 2012 ) Pebble Beach, CA -- The Pebble Beach Dryer Vent Cleaning Monterey Wizard was saddened when a local family lost their home to a dryer fire. Thankfully, no one was injured, but the family lost everything. This could have easily been prevented with dryer vent cleaning service. Few people realize that their clothes dryer is the most likely appliance to cause a fire.
Most everyone knows to clean the lint trap after every load of laundry; however, this isn’t all that is required to maintain the system. Only about 60 percent of the lint that is removed from laundry is caught in the screen. The rest escapes into the dryer vent system and inside the dryer, around the motor and heating element. As the moist lint sticks to the inside of the dryer duct, it attracts more lint that builds up and restricts air flow.
When asked how this leads to a dryer fire, Jon Perry, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.dryerventwizard.com) explains, “A dryer fire occurs when lint accumulates to the point of restricting airflow. When heat and moisture cannot escape the dryer drum, the system overheats, the dryer throws a spark, and the flammable lint ignites to start a rapidly spreading fire.”
Education is a vital part of the Wizard’s service and he lists a number other causes of dryer fires, including the dryer duct and vent materials not meeting today’s safety codes, or improper installation. Short straight vents that are smooth inside and made of solid metal are the best. Bends and turns can hinder air flow. The best way to be sure the dryer vent system is fire safe and energy efficient is to order a professional inspection from a qualified dryer exhaust technician.
Dryer vent systems are the Wizard’s only focus; therefore, they are the experts to trust. Dryer Vent Wizard is making a difference for consumers by making clothes dryers safer and greener while educating the customer about the function and maintenance of their dryer vent system.
