HIDDEN DANGER
There’s a hidden danger spot in most homes today. Chances are you don’t look at it or even think about it. It’s the vent from your clothes dryer. Over time, it fills with lint that slips past your dryer’s filter. Overheating results as the lint builds up, and then you’re just a step away from a fire.
HERE ARE SOME ALARMING FACTS FROM A MAY 2003 REPORT FROM THE CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION:
- Over 15,000 clothes dryer fires occur each year
- Result in approx. 20 deaths, 370 injuries and over $75 million in property damage annually
- The high-limit thermostat may prematurely fail when subjected to high ambient temp.
After a significant build-up of debris in the dryer vent hose, the dryer overheats and the lint catches fire. Combustibles in the immediate vicinity then help fuel the fire.
SIMPLE SOLUTION
Unlike many health and safety issues we are faced with within the home, this safety problem has an easy and economical solution. The best way to prevent the possibility of a dryer fire harming your home and family is with a thorough dryer inspection by the professionals at Kleen-Flo.
A key to effective dryer performance is optimal airflow. A properly installed all-metal dryer vent will help ensure this airflow. Skilled technicians from Kleen-Flo will check to ensure there is proper airflow for the dryer and that the right equipment is in use.
In addition, numerous financial benefits are derived from annual dryer vent cleaning. Removing the lint allows the dryer to operate more efficiently, reducing energy costs significantly. Drying times are decreased. And, your dryer can last much longer since it’s not operating at the higher temperatures that are caused by the lint buildup. The charge for this service is surprisingly reasonable, and it pays for itself in lower service and utility costs.
