Frequently Asked Questions

Learn how dryer vent cleaning works, what warning signs to look for, how to maintain your dryer vent and how to arrange a professional cleaning.

Cleaning and Maintenance

How often should dryer vents be cleaned?

Dryer vents should be inspected regularly and cleaned when lint buildup or restricted airflow is present. The appropriate frequency depends on how often the dryer is used, the length of the vent and its configuration.

How long does dryer vent cleaning take?

The time required depends on the vent's length, accessibility, configuration and condition. Contact us to discuss your property and appointment requirements.

What happens if I never clean my dryer vent?

Lint can accumulate inside the dryer exhaust duct over time. This buildup can restrict airflow, reduce drying efficiency and increase the risk of a dryer fire. Regular inspection and cleaning help address lint accumulation.

Problems and Warning Signs

Why is my dryer taking two cycles to dry clothes?

Restricted airflow caused by lint buildup in the exhaust duct is one possible reason your dryer takes longer to dry clothes. Other appliance faults can also cause longer drying times.

If your dryer is taking longer than usual, having the vent inspected can help identify whether airflow restriction is contributing to the problem.

Can a blocked dryer vent cause a fire?

Yes. Lint accumulation in dryer exhaust systems is a recognised fire hazard. Regular inspection and cleaning can help reduce this risk by addressing lint buildup and restricted airflow.

Why is there lint around my outside dryer vent?

Lint around the exterior dryer vent outlet may indicate that lint is escaping or that airflow is being affected. The vent, exterior cover and duct should be inspected to identify the cause.
