Keep Your Dryer Efficient & Your Kaysville, UT Home Safe With Our Dryer Vent Cleaning Services
How often do you think about your dryer vent? Did you even know you had a dryer event? Some of us are just used to tossing our clothes in the dryer, setting the time, and then coming back to get our newly dry clothes when they're done (or perhaps procrastinating because we don't want to fold them). But your dryer vent is one of the most important components of your dryer, allowing the hot air it generates to safely escape your home and go outside where it won't bother you or your home comfort. When that dryer vent is blocked, however, it can cause a host of issues for your home. That's why Total Home Services of Utah offers professional dryer vent cleaning services.

How Often Should I Have My Dryer Vent Professionally Cleaned?
It doesn't hurt for you to check your dryer vent periodically yourself to make sure that it's not clogged. However, it's still recommended to have a professional cleaning done at different intervals depending on how heavy your usage is. Generally speaking, you can follow these guidelines:
- Light Use: If it's just you using your dryer or you don't use it that often, you should have it cleaned every 18 to 24 months.
- Regular Use: If you have a typical family of around 4 to 5 people, you should have your event cleaned at least once a year.
- Heavy Use: If you have a large family, or are constantly doing laundry, it's recommended you have your vent cleaned every 6 months.
- Pets: If you have pets in your home, then you should have your dryer vent cleaned at least twice a year, as it will be more apt to clog up as pet fur is pulled off of your clothes.
What Are The Benefits Of Professional Dryer Vent Cleaning?
You may be wondering why you should have professional dryer vent cleaning when you're capable of doing it at least partially yourself. But there are a number of advantages to having a thoroughly cleaned dryer vent, including:
- Faster Drying: Have you noticed that it seems like it takes forever for your clothes to get dry? A clogged dryer vent does not let the heated, humid air that's been drying your clothes escape, and that humidity keeps them from drying completely. A clean dryer vent will avoid this problem.
- Better Efficiency: When your dryer vent is clear, and it doesn't take your dryer as long to do its job, it winds up having to use less power. This translates into savings on your power bill, which, let's face it, we can all use!
- Fire Safety: Dryer lint is very flammable. Some people even save it to use it as kindling when they go camping! But that unfortunately means that your dryer vent is constantly holding on to a potential fire hazard. Professional cleaning will make sure that all of the lint is removed and along with it, the danger.
