Each
year, 15,500 American families suffer home fires associated with their
clothes dryers.
These
fires are responsible for approximately 10 deaths, 310 injuries, and
$96,000,000 in property damage!
Dryer
fires are a common problem with a simple solution:
Clean your
dryer vents.
Lack of
maintenance is the LEADING cause of dryer fires.
Lint is
sited as the leading material to ignite. The lint builds up and
clogs the dryer vent reducing the flow of air and causing a build up of
heat. This increases the possibility that lint will ignite.
Cleaning your
dryer vent every 6-12 months may prevent dryer fires.
The
fires may be caused by:
Failure
of mechanical and/or electrical parts within the dryer.
Improper
materials placed in the dryer.
Insufficient
airflow as a result of improper installation.
This
safety concern has an easy and economical solution.
The
best way to prevent a dryer fire from harming your family is to have your
dryer thoroughly inspected by the professionals at
