Dryer vent cleaning is very important appliance maintenance; yet too often neglected by homeowners
Rancho Cordova, CA – Dryer vent cleaning eliminates a fire hazard while extending the life of a clothes dryer. Dryer vent cleaning promotes faster drying time; therefore, reducing energy costs. The cost of dryer vent cleaning is so little compared to the cost of replacing a broken-down clothes dryer, or the devastation caused by a dryer fire.
The rising cost of utilities has encouraged Americans to be more conservative. Home maintenance, including weather-stripping, replacement windows and appliance maintenance has proven to reduce utility costs significantly. Gina Fazil, owner and operator of Dryer Vent Wizard, is making a difference in her community by educating consumers about dryer vent maintenance. Though most people know to have their furnace cleaned regularly, many do not think about dryer vent cleaning. Few realize that the clothes dryer is much more likely to cause a fire than a furnace.
Gina explains how lint can accumulate inside the dryer assembly and the dryer vent system. The dryer vent system removes moisture, heat and lint from the laundry; otherwise, it will not dry. Unfortunately, most of the lint removed from laundry does not make it to the vent outdoors. The lint that manages to escape the lint screen becomes trapped in the dryer vent system where it builds up and blocks air-flow, and becomes a serious fire hazard. Dryer vent inspection and service by the Wizard (http://casacramento.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) will eliminate the problem and improve dryer performance.
Gina is concerned about consumers who are unaware of the danger lurking in their dryer vent system. Her mission is to educate consumers about dryer fire prevention through proper dryer vent maintenance. In spite of all her hard work, the number of dryer fires has grown to over 17,000 per year! Dryer lint is combustible and it provides ample fuel for a rapidly spreading fire.
Gina Fazil is the owner and operator of Dryer Vent Wizard, a dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation company, serving the Sacramento area. Gina inspects dryer duct and vent systems to be sure they are working efficiently and safely as she educates her customers on how to properly maintain their system between her annual visits.
