Is your Dryer Vent Safe?
Portland, CT – Clothes dryers are a wonderful invention that most homeowners will not be without. Even in today’s economy, with rising energy costs, most consumers refuse to replace their clothes dryer with the old-fashioned clotheslines and dryer racks.
Don Brusseau is a dryer vent cleaning and repair technician for Dryer Vent Wizard, the nation’s largest dryer exhaust specialist. In a recent interview Don said, “Your clothes dryer is a rather simple machine; it requires heat and air flow to dry your laundry. It is also the most likely of your appliances to cause a fire or contaminate the air in your home with mold and mildew if it is not properly vented.”
Don has noticed that many consumers think it’s OK to vent their clothes dryers into the attic or crawl space. He explained, “Dryer vent systems remove heat and moisture from your tumbling laundry; venting the excess moisture into your attic or crawl space allows mold and mildew to do serious damage to your home. Mold spores are also a health threat to residents. If you have a gas dryer, the system also removes gas by-products like carbon monoxide.”
Dryer Vent Wizard only installs dryer vent systems of rigid or semi-rigid metal that lead to a vent outside. “By law, all gas dryers are required to be vented outside,” said Brusseau. “We install a louvered dryer vent hood with a 4-inch opening to allow maximum air flow.” For more information, read Don’s blog at http://dryerventcleaningbridgeport.blogspot.com/
