The state fire marshall advised home owners to clean their dryer vents. Most dryer vent buildup starts with a buildup of lint, which blocks air flow and ignites when it becomes too hot.
When our professional technicians inspect your clothes dryer exhaust duct, we completely disassemble the dryer vents and conduct a thorough cleaning of all the components. We then make sure there are no obstructions and we verify that the correct type of vent is in use and installed properly.
We use the highest quality, most advanced system of its type to solve your dryer's lint problem safely and effectively. Using a combination of suction from a high powered vacuum and the thorough cleaning action of a rotating brush, the dangerous lint is collected and completely removed from your venting system and from the dryer itself.
Our equipment will remove blockages such as bird nests and dangerous lint. Our charge for this service is surprisingly reasonable, often paying for itself in lower service and utility costs.

Most homeowners do not realize that dryer vents need to be cleaned
A homeowner will notice that clothes take longer than usual to dry. They usually think that their dryer is just getting old. However, most of the time the problem is that the dryer vent is partially or completely clogged. How do you know if you need your dryer vent to be cleaned? Well if your dryer is connected to an exterior wall, then you probably are not going to have much of a problem. To check, turn the dryer on and look where the hose connects to the exterior wall. Go on the roof to where the dryer vent gooseneck is and feel the exterior dryer vent . There should be a forceful breeze coming from the vent. If there isn't, then the hose behind the dryer is probably kinked or clogged. A homeowner can usually clean this, however, some may say, "Hey, wait. My dryer isn't connected to an exterior wall. It goes behind my dryer and vents to the roof, or who knows where?" You now know the dryer vent needs to be cleaned
Dryer vent cleaning improves the safety and efficiency of your dryer installation.
As dryer vents become filled with lint and other debris, drying time increases and can cause the dryer itself to overheat. This increases energy consumption since the dryer has to run longer to dry your clothes and can also cause fires in the dryer or the dryer duct.
If you have noticed that your dryer is running longer than it used to you may be in need of dyer vent cleaning. Some dryer vents are relatively short and straight and can be cleaned easily by the homeowner, but others aren't that easy and may require the use of special tools and equipment. Chim Chimnee has tools specifically designed to clean dryer vents and with these tools we are able to do a thorough job of cleaning even the most difficult installations. While dryer vents are routinely blocked with lint, animal nesting is also another frequent cause of dryer vent blockage and our equipment allows us to remove these blockages as well. Another problem created by blocked dryer vents serving gas dryers is the possibility of carbon monoxide seepage into your home. If the dryer is not exhausting properly to the outdoors, CO can back up into the home. We measure the duct back pressure before and after the dryer vent cleaning process to determine the effectiveness of the cleaning. This also helps insure your dryer duct installation does not exceed recommended limits. Call Chim Chimnee Today and Let Us Help Protect Your Home & Your Family Against Dangerous Dryer Vent Fires!!!!
