(EMAILWIRE.COM, April 28, 2010 ) Riverhead, NY -- Dryer vent cleaning prevents dryer fires. Dryer vent cleaning prolongs the life of your dryer and your clothing. Dryer vent cleaning prevents inflated energy bills. Do you understand why dryer vent cleaning is so important?

Over 15,000 dryer related fires occur annually with failure to clean dryer vents being the number one cause. John Ryley owns Dryer Vent Wizard of Nassau and Suffolk Counties, NY. “We work hard to educate consumers about the importance of dryer vent cleaning to eliminate a fire hazard,” said Ryley.

John Ryley explained how lint is formed. “The lint screen collects and contains about 60% of lint removed from tumbling laundry. Dryer lint is simply small fibers that are shed from clothing as it agitates in your washer. Heat and tumbling motions cause clothing and other materials in the dryer to break down and produce lint.”

When asked how these tiny lint fibers can cause problems, Ryley explained, “As the dryer heats and dries your laundry, it also dries the lint. Air flow forces the lint into the lint screen. Remember, I mentioned that only 60% of dryer lint is trapped in the lint screen. Some lint will escape into the dryer cabinet and cause problems with the motor, belts and pulleys. The rest gets trapped in the dryer vent system where it builds up and blocks air flow.”

John explained more about how lint build up occurs and how it leads to a fire. “Lint is evil; it can build up in the dryer ducts and reduce air flow. As air flow is reduced, heat and moisture cannot easily escape. Now, the lint, that should be dry, is moist. It sticks to the sides of your dryer duct and attracts more lint. Now you have all the ingredients needed to start a serious, rapidly spreading, fire!”

Over 15,000 dryer fires are reported annually, with failure to clean dryer vents being the number one cause. Dryer fires cause millions of dollars in property damage and death and injury to people and pets every year. Visit http://www.dryerventwizard.com to learn more.
