Dryer Vent Cleaning

Have you considered the importance of dryer vent cleaning for both safety and the efficiency of your dryer?

Between 2006 and 2010, Emergency Management BC recorded 260 house fires caused by dryers. While there are no national statistics available in Canada, the US Fire Administration reported a staggering 12,700 residential house fires involving dryers annually. Neglecting dryer vent cleaning is the most common cause of such fires, as accumulated lint from fabric nap clogs the dryer vent and leads to overheating.

Proper dryer vent cleaning not only optimizes dryer performance but also ensures a fresher smell in your laundry area. The lint and debris in your dryer vent are regularly exposed to moist air, making it a breeding ground for mold and bacteria, as well as a source of unpleasant odors.

Oliver’s Power Vacuum provides professional dryer vent cleaning services to maintain clean air and enhance the safe and efficient operation of your dryer. Our process begins from the outside of the exhaust vent, moving toward the appliance using a reverse blowing skipper head that effectively dislodges debris. The skipper pulls itself through the dryer duct while venting all the lint to the outside.
