Dryer Vent Cleaning - Canadian Chimney
Dryer Fire

Vent Cleaning Service

Dryer fires caused by built up lint are a common cause of house fires. Canadian Chimneys dryer vent cleaning service involves cleaning out the lint trap, disconnecting the dryer duct connector, cleaning the dryer ducting and the exterior dryer vent.  This service can be obtained alone or at a reduced rate when combined with one of our chimney services.
How long has it been since you had your clothes dryer exhaust duct cleaned?  

Cleaning your clothes dryer exhaust duct is an important service. This is a service that is often overlooked and can cause water damage, possible fire hazard, health risks, higher electrical costs and even damage to your clothes dryer. Your clothes dryer alone is an expensive investment.

When a dryer duct becomes plugged you are more likely to experience moisture or water damage. This moisture or water may or may not be visible to you. We commonly retrieve 2-5 gallons of lint, and many times 2-4 gallons of water, from dryer ducts when we clean them.

Experiencing long drying times?

Example of your dryer duct needs to be cleaned:
  • Clothes (especially towels or jeans) take a long time to dry.
  • Clothes are hotter than usual at the end of the drying cycle.
  • Flapper on vent hood doesn’t open when dryer is on.
  • Reduced airflow and the resulting lint build-up cause overheating by preventing a fast-enough drying action. When this happens, the high temperature limit safety switch has to cycle on and off to control the heater. Most high temperature limit switches were never designed to cycle on and off continuously which can cause them to fail over a period of time.

Proper Airflow:
Proper airflow venting can decrease drying time and decrease operating costs. Full airflow helps prevent the dryer from operating on its high temperature safety limit control. Vinyl and foil duct venting materials can easily collapse when installed. The use of proper venting materials to achieve maximum performance may also extend the life of the dryer and increase the life of clothing due to lower drying temperatures.


Reduced Maintenance and Energy Costs:
A key to effective dryer performance is optimal airflow. A properly installed all-metal dryer vent will help ensure this airflow. When clothes are given the appropriate amount of air, they dry quicker and are subject to less tumbling. This results in less wear on the clothing and less use of electricity or gas.
Failure to properly maintain your dryer ducts can cause damage to your clothes dryer and, at the very least, a waste of your valuable time waiting for your clothes to dry.

And as if that weren’t enough…The Consumer Products Safety Commission estimates there are 24,000 clothes dryer fires each year in the United States, amounting to $96,000,000 in estimated property damage. Lack of maintenance is the leading cause of dryer fires, and LINT is the leading material to ignite. These fires can be caused by failure of mechanical and/or electrical parts within the dryer itself, improper materials being put into the dryer, and insufficient airflow as a result of improper installation.
