Herndon Dryer Vent Installation
Wizard Helps to Create a Healthier Home Environment
Poorly vented clothes dryers can result in poor indoor air quality with mold, allergens and other indoor air contaminants that cause health issues for sensitive residents
Doug Bittner, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, works to encourage consumer awareness about the importance of professional dryer vent installation and regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning service. When left unchecked a poorly vented dryer can lead to several problems. Dryer vent fittings loosen. Lint builds up in the dryer vent hose. Hot moist air is vented into the home rather than outside and with it dust, lint particles, and a dwelling place for dust mites is generated.
According to the Wizard (http://www.NorthernVirginia.DryerVentCleaningNow.com) simply vacuuming out the dryer vent hose is not sufficient. Some home insurance providers are realizing the danger and making dryer vent cleaning mandatory. In an average home a leaky dryer vent hose can increase the inside humidity by as much as 30%. Proper dryer vent installation and complete dryer vent cleaning by the Wizard is the best way to eliminate this problem as well as a serious fire hazard.
Regularly scheduled dryer vent inspection and service will reduce the unseen creepy crawlers that pollute the air in the home. Professional dryer vent installation by the Wizard will ensure proper venting and safe dryer operation.
Some insurance companies that realize the danger are working to educate homeowners of the hazards associated with a clogged dryer vent system. As the lint builds up in the dryer vent hose, air flow is restricted, heat builds up, the dryer throws a spark and the flammable lint ignites to start a rapidly spreading fire. Service by the Wizard will improve air quality and make the home a safer place to be.
Be safe and don’t wait for the extreme sign of dust hanging from the back of the dryer or on the outside wall. With a ceiling dryer vent system the lint may even build up in and around the vent cap on the roof. By this time the danger is high and a dryer vent service technician should be called immediately.
