Rick
Gutridge, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard addresses several problems he finds with poorly vented clothes dryers. The flexible foil, vinyl and corrugated
plastic systems increase friction and restrict air flow making the dryer work
harder to do its job. This increases the
chance of mechanical break-down or overheating which can lead to a fire. Proper
dryer vent installation and regular dryer vent cleaning service will extend the
life of the dryer, reduce energy expenses, and eliminate a fire hazard.
