Dryer Fire Warning Signs

 

Reduced airflow and lint build-up causes overheating and prevents fast drying action.

When this happens, the high temperature limit safety switches cycle on and off continuously and thus may fail over a period of time.  This results in higher costs of operation and could result in a costly and dangerous dryer fire.

FRESH AIR SYSTEMS uses a variety of specialized tools and procedures to clean dryer vent ductwork.  The entire process usually takes about one hour.  However, cleaning is only one part of our service.  The dryer vent is also inspected for several mechanical issues that should be checked by a professional duct cleaner.

Advance Warning Signs:

  • Clothes (especially towels and jeans) take a very long time to dry.

  • Clothes are hotter than usual at the end of the cycle.

  • Flapper on vent hood doesn't open when dryer is on.

If you notice any of these signs, schedule a professional dryer cleaning or inspection immediately.

You could save your life and even some money with this simple procedure.
