Quality Comfort Home Services provides dryer vent cleaning for residential homes and small commercial businesses.
Protect your home by having your dryer vent cleaned. Dryer fires are the number one cause of house fires.
Annual Dryer Vent Cleaning
Quality Comfort recommends having your home or business’ dryer vents cleaned once or twice a year depending on the length of your dryer vent line and the frequency in which you use the dryer.
Improve Your Dryer’s Efficiency
Cleaning your dryer vent will make your home safer from house fires and increase your dryer’s efficiency at the same time.
Cleaning your dryer vent may seem so obvious and easy, but how many of us really clean it as often as we should? Even when we do clean, a brush alone simply cannot reach all of the lint and other debris that may be hiding in your dryer line. Dryer lines can reach up to 35 feet! Cleaning your lint trap alone is only part of the process for a safe dryer. Failure to clean the dryer (34 percent) is the leading cause of home dryer fires. (FEMA)
Our Process
Quality Comfort cleans your dryer vent line from the outside in. We use one or both of two types of different systems to complete your vent cleaning depending upon the setup of your dryer vent. The first system is compressed air with a specific fitting while the other is a powered rotary brush. Both of these cleaning processes do a thorough job and clean the entire line that a standard DIY brush may not be able to reach, especially if your dryer line twists and turns. If there are multiple turns or your vent is especially long then the compressed air will work to push all the debris from the turns.
Here is what you can expect during your dryer vent cleaning – first we will perform a pre-clean airflow test. This tells us how quickly your dryer is venting out air. Then we will turn your dryer on and use the brush or compressed air system multiple times until the vent line is clean. Next, we will perform a post-clean air flow test. This will allow us to see the change in the airflow from before the clean versus after. During your clean we will also be checking your dryer vent termination for any damage. All of this information will be part of your post cleaning report as well that will be emailed to you after completion of your dryer vent cleaning. Finally, we will clean up and leave your home just as we found it!
For second-story homes, condos, or other dryer vents that may be difficult to access, we can reach up to 30 feet to clean your dryer vent line. If you have a patio or other outside access to the dryer vent, we can use this to access your line as well.
Can’t I Clean My Own Dryer Vent?
Dryer vent cleaning brushes are readily available in retail stores like Lowe’s and Home Depot and the cost is very inexpensive. Typically, these brushes can only reach up to around 12 feet. Dryer vent lines can actually measure up to 35 feet, especially if the line twists or turns before reaching the outside of your home. A brush will not be able to maneuver any twists or turns and certainly will not be able to reach longer dryer vent lines. This is why Quality Comfort Home Services recommends professional dryer vent cleaning services to ensure your dryer is free of debris and safe to operate.
