All Clean Issues Advisory For Dryer Vent Cleaning In Utah

Centerville, Utah based All Clean Air Duct Cleaning recently issued an advisory for dryer owners to have their dryer vents cleaned by a profession. Daryl Olsen, a spokesperson for All Clean Air Duct Cleaning said, “Dryers are the number one reason for household fires, according to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. The dryer vent and the lint trap are the two most common places in which a fire could start. We always recommend having a professional clean your dryer vents at least once a year. If you are having any performance issues, you may also want to get a professional inspection.”

Lint collecting in dryer vents or in the lint trap reduces and restricts the airflow. This in turn causes exhaust gases to become trapped, creating the perfect environment to start an otherwise preventable fire. Over 15,000 clothes dryer fires are reported each year, many of which could have been avoided with proper maintenance.

Not surprisingly, the leading cause of clothes dryer fires is human failure to clean the dryer. Those seeking Utah dryer vent cleaning services naturally wish to understand the signs that indicate that their dryer venting needs to be cleaned. One such sign they can easily spot is their clothes and wash taking forever to dry. Others report that their clothes feel very hot near or at the end of the drying cycle, or that the dryer itself feels unusually hot. Sometimes, dryer users report a burnt or stale smell. Often, they report that room housing the dryer unit feels particularly humid or damp.

Any time the hood flap of the vent will not fully open, this indicates a sure case of a blockage. Similarly, if it fails to close properly, it could also provide an open entrance for pests seeking shelter. In this situation, the airflow is restricted and the buildup is significant. “Regardless of the cause, if there is any concern, we advise calling in a professional cleaning service,” continued Daryl Olsen. He added, “Regular cleaning increases fire safety. It will also save energy and reduce utility bills—research has shown that this could be anywhere between $18-25 per month.”

All Clean Air Duct Cleaning provides its services to homes and businesses throughout Centerville and other areas across Utah, including Kaysville, Layton, Lehi, Salt Lake City, Sandy, Ogden, Park City, Provo, and Roy. Their primary services include air duct cleaning, dryer vent cleaning, and electrostatic furnace filter cleaning—everything to keep a household’s systems operating properly, as well as to remove allergens and reduce the risk of fires starting in dryer vents and lint traps.

Ben LeClair said in his 5-Star review that, “Justin from All Clean Air Duct Cleaning came and cleaned every vent in our home and also the dryer vent. He did a great job. Very thorough. Will definitely use them again.” Home and property owners know they should get their main air ducts cleaned at least once a year, and it is the same for dryer vents. Those who have neglected to have either completed can catch up on both services and ensure that all their systems continue to work as they should.

Another customer, Ashley Thomas, highlights that sometimes it is better to call in the professionals. She gave All Clean Air Duct Cleaning 5-Stars in her review, saying, “This is the place to call. Justin was our Technician and he was awesome. I would highly recommend this company. Justin worked hard to get this black brush I had got stuck in my dryer vent. He got it out of my dryer vent system. Lesson learned for me! Don’t do things yourself you don’t know how to do. Instead, call this company. I’m highly impressed by his skills and abilities. Thanks!”
