Frequently asked questions
How often should I clean my dryer vent?
Every 1–2 years, or more if you notice longer drying times. It's a fire hazard if ignored.
Can I do it myself?
Yes, using a vent cleaning kit, but professional service reaches deeper and is safer. DIY costs $30–$50 for a kit.
What are signs my vent is clogged?
Clothes take longer to dry, the dryer is hot to the touch, or there's a burning smell. Address immediately.
