DID YOU KNOW?

Clothes dryers cause more home fires than any
other appliance.


The
Consumer Product Safety Commission
estimates that up to 24,000 clothes dryer
related fires occur each year.

Clogged Dryer Vents:

  • Cause Carbon Monoxide Poisoning
  • Will Reduce the Life of Your Dryer
  • Will Increase  Drying Time
  • Will Increase Utility Bills

The Problem:

Over time, your dryer vent fills with lint that
sneaks by the dryer's filter. Over-heating comes
next as the lint builds up. Now you're just a step
away from a fire.


The Solution:

Have your dryer vent system cleaned and
inspected every 1-3 years (depending on usage) by a
professional
