- Fire Safety: The U.S. Fire Administration reports that failure to clean the dryer vent is the leading cause of home clothes dryer fires. Regular cleaning dramatically reduces this risk.
- Increased Efficiency: A clean vent allows your dryer to operate at peak efficiency, drying clothes faster, using less energy, and thereby saving you money on utility bills.
- Extended Dryer Life: Clogged vents can lead to overheating and wear out your dryer prematurely. Cleaning the vent extends the lifespan of your appliance.
