Dryer Vent Cleaning Santa Rosa Wizard Spring Cleaning Tips

(LosAngeles.CityRegions.Com, March 17, 2014 ) Santa Rosa, CA – Spring is an ideal time to schedule dryer vent cleaning service. The Santa Rosa Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard asks, “Do you know what’s in your dryer vent?” Because it is out of sight, the dryer vent system is rarely given a second thought. Dryer lint accumulation is the most common culprit found in the dryer vent system and most hazardous. Lint is highly flammable and a small spark thrown from the dryer could easily ignite it and start a rapidly spreading fire.

Rhonda Nole, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard (http://dryerventcleaningsantarosa.com/) has found more than lint in a dryer vent system. Animal hair, bird and bee nests and evidence of bugs and rodents can also be found in a poorly maintained dryer vent system. Any debris inside the dryer vent can restrict air flow and reduce dryer efficiency and performance.

According to the US Fire Administration there are an average of 17,000 dryer fires in the US with nearly $200 million in property damage, 15 deaths and 400 injuries annually. Failure to clean was cited as the leading factor contributing to dryer fires in residential buildings. Similar reports by the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) confirm annual maintenance of dryers and dryer vents as a home safety issue lacking consumer awareness.

This is why the Santa Rosa Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard works to raise consumer awareness about the danger associated with a clogged dryer vent. Other causes of dryer fires include faulty dryer vent systems, improperly installed dryer vents, combustible substances and materials in and around the dryer and sometimes, dryer malfunction. The Wizard also warns about drying rags soaked in flammable solvents even if they have been washed first. Residue can remain on the rags and the heat from the dyer can cause them to ignite.

Rhonda advises her customers to keep the laundry area free from flammable material such as newspaper, cardboard boxes and flammable chemicals and cleaning solvents. Even if these items are not the cause of a fire, they will provide fuel to allow a fire to spread and cause more damage. These items are better stored in a shed or garage, away from heat producing appliances.
