The Dryer Vent Cleaning Pittsburgh Wizard with Tips to Save on Homeowners’ Insurance

June 27, 2011 - PRLog -- Pittsburgh, PA – The Dryer Vent Cleaning Pittsburgh Wizard advises consumers that their washer and dryer can cause hazards leading to serious home damage; water damage from washers and fire damage from dryers.  Many homeowners have filed insurance claims for damages related to the washer or dryer.  These appliances caused nearly $200 million in property damage in 2006, according to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).  Homeowners who file an insurance claim for damages caused by appliances will likely pay a deductible and see an increase in their premium.

According to the NFPA, about one third of dryer fires between 2003 and 2006 were caused by clothing catching fire.  Dust and lint caused 27 percent of dryer fires.  In addition, frayed, cracked or kinked water supply hoses can burst, causing flooding and serious damages.  After the deductible, these claims cost home insurance providers an average of more than $5,000.  

The Dryer Vent Cleaning Pittsburgh Wizard performs dryer vent installation and dryer vent cleaning service while educating his customers about dryer fire prevention.  Though dryer vents are the Wizard’s main focus, he also offers tips to prevent washing machine hazards.

The Wizard advises consumers to check washer hoses regularly for bulging, cracking or fraying and to replace hoses every 3 to 5 years as a precaution.  Dryers pose many hazardous risks for owners including dryer fires, increased energy bills, wear and tear on the dryer and carbon monoxide with gas dryers.  Professional dryer vent installation and regular dryer vent cleaning by the Wizard ensures clothes dryers operate safely and efficiently.
