Dryer Vent Cleaning Idaho Falls

Many things in life have to be done regardless of whether we want to do them or not. For most, cleaning is one of those tasks that are done out of obligation if at all. When cleaning is done, it usually is not super in-depth cleaning, like scrubbing all the surfaces that can be seen easily. The places within a home that are not easily seen can be forgotten. This includes your dryer vent. You may be cleaning out the lint screen each time you run your dryer but that may not be enough. The dryer vent that runs from your dryer to the outside of your home can collect lint and be dangerous if not taken care of. At Sunrise Cleaning, we are able to take the burden of cleaning one of your hard to reach places such as your dryer vents. 

Why Should Your Dryer Vents be Cleaned Out?

As your dryer vent becomes clogged, drying time gradually increases. While you may not notice the extra few minutes at first, the drying cycle will continue to take longer as the vents become more clogged until you eventually have to run a second cycle in order to dry clothes completely. This is due to the fact that the vent is not getting proper ventilation to cycle out the humid air. We personally guarantee a complete and thorough cleaning of your entire dryer vent, from the laundry room to the termination. We don’t charge extra to go on roofs or under homes. At Sunrise Cleaning Idaho Falls, we are happy to provide before and after pictures along with airflow readings to provide our customers with reassurance and peace of mind that their dryer vent is 100% cleaned and allows their dryer to run as efficiently as possible.

Benefits of Dryer Vent Cleaning

Speed Up Your Dry Times

We know that there is always a long list of things that need to be done and laundry may be on that list. When you have the chance to get some laundry done, the last thing you want is to be waiting on the clothes in the dryer to finish so you can start another load or finish folding the laundry. When we come out to clean your dryer vent, your dry times will decrease. This means that you can spend less time waiting for your clothes to dry and spend the time doing other things on your to do list.

Save Energy

When your dryer vents are full or clogged by lint, it will cause longer running times for the dryer. All of this extra running time adds up. An inefficient dryer vent system could cost an average of an extra $18-$24 per month due to extended and repeat cycles. By having your dryer vent system cleaned, you can save big on energy and utility costs. 

Extend the Life of Your Clothing and Dryer

Having your dryer vent cleaned can decrease the amount of time that you are running your dryer. A clogged dryer vent can be damaging to your dryer and clothing through excessive wear during longer or repeated drying cycles and due to trapped heat and moisture. Dryers are expensive and are an investment, at Idaho Falls Sunrise Cleaning we want to keep your investment working properly for as long as possible. Having your dryer vents cleaned will increase the longevity of your dryer.

Eliminate Your Risk of Fire

Obstructed dryer vents are the source of thousands of house fires every year. People often ignore or don’t recognize the signs of a clogged dryer vent, and this seemingly small oversight can have disastrous results, including the loss of life and property. The best way to prevent house fires from starting in or around your dryer is to have Idaho Falls Sunrise Cleaning take care of your vents to avoid a dangerous outcome. 

Eradicate Mold & Mildew

Mold and mildew thrive in warm, moist environments, just like those that exist in dryers and laundry areas where a dryer vent clog or obstruction is present. Every time that your dryer runs, it is getting the moisture out of the wet clothes in order for them to dry. The moisture will come out through the dryer vent if it is clean. But if the dryer vent is not clean, the moisture gets trapped within the vent. This can cause an environment for mold to grow.
