Signs You are Overdue for Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer vent cleaning can help protect your home and family from dryer fires. It’s important to be proactive by keeping your lint traps clean and scheduling annual cleanings. However, sometimes it can be hard to know exactly when the right time is to schedule that necessary cleaning.

Luckily, there are warning signs that it is indeed time for dryer vent cleaning in New Brighton!

1. Increased Drying Times

Some still believe that longer drying times or requiring multiple cycles to dry your clothes is a sign that you need a new dryer altogether. However, in reality it normally means that you need dryer vent cleaning performed. When lint builds up and becomes trapped in the vent, your dryer works harder and less efficiently, causing it to require more and more time to complete its job.

2. Musty Smells

If your dryer vents become clogged and your clothes take longer to dry, this can sometimes also cause a musty smell in your clothes. The musty smell results from dryers being inefficient and not removing all the moisture from your clothes, leaving them damp. If musty smells become more normal from your dryer, it’s time to take action and give us a call to clean your dryer vents!

3. Burning Smells

However, musty smells are not the worst smell that could be caused by clogged dryer vents. Sometimes a sign that dryer vents require cleaning is a burning smell. This smell is caused by your dryer overheating due to lint accumulating near the dryer heat supply. If you notice a burning smell coming from your dryer – turn it off immediately and contact Vent Guys. The safest choice is to avoid using your dryer again until a professional can inspect and clean your dryer vents.

A burning smell can often be caused by some of the lint catching fire at one point. That’s why it is just as important that you have an appliance company come out to inspect and clean your dryer itself as it is you have vent cleaning performed.

When it comes to dryer vent cleaning, it really is an easy choice. Contact Vent Guys today to schedule your dryer vent cleaning in New Brighton and the surrounding Twin Cities area! Call us at 612-492-1342 or contact us!

Have You Scheduled Your Dryer Vent Cleaning?

If you have not, don’t worry – it’s not too late! Having your dryer vent cleaned should be an essential task on everyone’s annual house cleaning checklist. Keeping your dryer vent clean will save you money and protect your personal safety, as well as your property. For dryer vent cleaning in Blaine, call Vent Guys!

Let’s take a moment to discuss three reasons why cleaning your dryer vent is so important!

1. Decreases Risk of Fire

A clogged dryer vent can cause unwanted risk of house fires. In fact, according to the U.S. Fire Administration approximately 2,900 fires per year are attributed to dryers, with the leading cause of dryer fires being a clogged vent causing buildup of lint in your dryer! You can easily protect yourself from dryer fires by having someone perform routine dryer and dryer vent cleaning, even if you clean your lint trap every time.

2. Increases Dryer Efficiency

Cleaning your dryer vent can also improve the efficiency of your dryer. If you’ve noticed that your dryer is taking multiple cycles to dry your clothes, then it may be time to have your dryer vent cleaned! Obstructions in your dryer vent can prevent or slow the flow of air, which causes your dryer to function poorly. Regular cleaning of your dryer vent can not only improve short-term efficiency of your dryer, but it can extend your dryer’s life by keeping it in tip-top shape!

3. Saves You Money

A final, huge reason to make sure you routinely have your dryer vent cleaned is as simple as: it saves you money. Now you may be wondering: how does paying someone to clean my dryer vent SAVE me money? That sounds like it costs money!

While you are partially right in that it will cost you money upfront, the misconception here is that it costs you nothing to leave your dryer vent clogged. When you don’t maintain your dryer vent, you end up spending more on energy each time you use your dryer, especially when you have to tack on extra cycles to get your clothes dry. Comparatively, having your dryer vent cleaned once a year is a smaller expense to bear!

When it comes to cleaning your dryer vent, it really is an easy choice. Contact Vent Guys today to schedule your dryer vent cleaning in Blaine and the surrounding Twin Cities area! Call us at 612-492-1342 or contact us!

The Many Benefits of Magic Pak Cleaning

The weather is finally getting warmer here in the Twin Cities. Is your business property ready for the hot months ahead? One of the most important services to schedule this spring is the cleaning of the coils in your Magic Pak system. Magic Pak, Comfort Pack and Sky Pack cleaning can help ensure a smoother summer with less service calls due to downed cooling systems. For AC coil cleaning, including Magic Pak cleaning in Minnetonka and the surrounding areas, come to the experts at Vent Guys. We can offer thorough, trusted cleaning of your all-in-one units for a more efficient bottom line. 

There are many great benefits to Magic Pak cleaning and we are here to tell you all about them. First of all, AC coil cleaning removes debris. Animal or insect nests and debris like dust or leaves can become caught in the coil. Thorough cleaning eliminates this nasty debris and gets your units back up and running well again. Dust is the most common contaminant you’ll find in the coils of a Magic Pak unit. Inside your home or business, there’s always plenty of dust and pollen to coat the evaporator coils. Regularly replacing air filters can help, but over time the coils will inevitably become dirty. By eliminating the dust and debris that can bog down your HVAC units, you can then increase their efficiency for a better bottom line. 

Cleaner units have better air flow and tend to run more efficiently than dirty, unkempt units. Increased efficiency of course means reduced energy costs which is great for everyone. Your units will use less energy which is not only helpful to you but the environment as well. 

And finally, a well-maintained unit will also break down less often, saving money on costly repairs and also helping to prolong the life of your property’s units. Fewer replacements mean more money in your pockets and no one can argue with that.
