EAGAN, Minn. - Jan. 5, 2017 - PRLog -- This time of year is the season when dryer fires seem to erupt across the nation. The threat of a dryer fire seems to coincidentally increase as the temperature outside decreases. It is extremely important that homeowners use a dryer vent cleaning service in their Eagan homes at least once every two to three years. A good time of year to have this work done is just before winter. If not yet completed, there is no better time than right now!

Dryer fires occur during the winter months due to the increased wear of thicker, bulkier clothing that ends up repeatedly being run through the dryer. The sheets, comforters and wool blankets that arein use this time of year and placed in the dryer also contribute. The thicker the clothing and bedding utilized during the winter months, the more lint it yields in the dryer. The more lint produced means more lint gets caught in dryer vents and hoses. The more lint found throughout the common stops in a dryer, the more likely it is that they will cause a fire.

Dryer vent cleaning as provided by Dryer Vent Wizard can eliminate a number of dryer related problems, especially if it has been a few years since the last cleaning. There are likely multiple conglomerations of lint that need to be addressed within any dryer that has not received a cleaning of this sort. If clothes are taking longer to dry than they should, if they come out with a musty smell to them, if otherwise untraceable reasons for an increase in monthly utility bill amounts occurs, or if the top of the dryer is hot to the touch when running, chances are that lint accumulation is the culprit.

In the interim, up to and beyond a dryer vent cleaning appointment, the following guidelines should be followed to create more efficient overall dryer functionality. During the regular flow of laundry, a dryer's lint trap should be cleaned before or after every single load. Heavier clothing and/or bedding should be air dried to prevent quick accumulations of lint. A dryer should never be run when no one is home. The area around a dryer should be kept clear of any items that could ignite into a fire. A dryer that is in need of a good cleaning may run hotter than usual, potentially causing items nearby to ignite.
