Every year, dryer lint in the ducts causes many home fires. Without taking proper precautions, you may face this problem, as well. Because of its dry nature, lint is extremely flammable, so you should have your dryer ducts cleaned each year. In the best-case scenario for a lint fire, the lint will burn out in the dryer, causing extreme damage to the appliance. However, many times, the fire spreads to other areas in the home. This is why yearly dryer duct cleaning is so important.
Taking Precautions Around Dryers
One safety precaution you can take is to ensure that your dryer ducts are metal, not plastic. If the ducts are plastic, they will not contain a lint fire. This can cause toxic fumes to build up in your home during a fire. A better choice is aluminum. You should also make sure that the vent hose is not too long.
At home, you can clean your lint screen regularly to save yourself money and time. Cleaning the lint screen before each load will prevent much of the lint from making its way to the vent. Even if you only have a small load, you should still clean it.
Another precaution that you can take is to keep items away from your dryer. If a lint fire does start, you do not want to have fuel around the dryer. Keeping cleaning supplies, boxes, clothing and other items away from the dryer is a good way to promote safety.
Getting Dryer Vent Cleaning in Toronto
Even with the best of care for your dryer, the vent line will still have lint accumulation. This line runs from the back of the dryer to the outside vent. The more laundry you do, the more your vent line will clog. This is why you need to get dryer duct cleaning in Toronto about once a year. You can’t clean it yourself as well as a professional company can. And if you do not clean the duct thoroughly, your home may be at risk for a fire.
When you get professional dryer duct cleaning, the technicians will take apart some components of your dryer. Then they will carefully remove all the lint using special tools. The problem with trying to do this yourself is that you may accidentally damage the gas lines or important components of your dryer.
