(EMAILWIRE.COM, July 02, 2010 ) Islip, NY – Dryer vent cleaning is the number one defense against clothes dryer fires. John Ryley owns Dryer Vent Wizard serving consumers and business owners in Suffolk County. “I recently read an article where the Phoenix Fire Department demonstrated just how easy it is for dryer lint to catch on fire,” said Ryley. “A study conducted by the Consumer Product Safety Commission indicated that 95% of people who clean their lint screen religiously will still have a significant amount of lint build-up inside the dryer cabinet or the dryer vent system.”

John Ryley barely kept his emotions in check as he commented on a couple recent dryer fires that he read about. “Dryer fires are devastating. A home can be destroyed and residents seriously injured or killed within minutes after a dryer fire gets started. Dryer fires are very easily prevented through dryer vent cleaning and proper dryer vent installation.

Sugarcreek Twp, Ohio – A recent dryer fire could have been much worse if it weren’t for the working smoke detectors. The 14 year old was sleeping when the fire started; the detector went off and she woke up and called 911.

West Jordan, UT – A dryer fire caused major damage to a home while a mother and daughter went for a walk. They came home to a complete mess, with the washer, dryer, surrounding walls and clothes in the machines destroyed by fire.

“I advise all my customers to never leave home or go to sleep while the dryer is running,” said Ryley. “It’s OK to multi-task and get things done while you’re waiting for clothes to dry. Vaccum, dust, do dishes or watch TV. Just don’t go to sleep or leave the house!”

Contrary to popular belief, the dryer vent system is not responsible for carrying lint to the outdoors. The main function is to release heat and moisture from the dryer drum as clothes dry. Only a very small amount of the trapped lint will make it to the outdoors. “Few people are aware that the lint screen only catches about 60% of lint removed from tumbling laundry, John explained. “The rest escapes into the dryer chassis, the dryer duct or the near the dryer vent outdoors.”

Fire officials and dryer manufacturers recommend annual dryer vent cleaning to keep clothes dryers operating safely and efficiently. A poorly vented dryer will cost substantially more to operate. Dryer vent cleaning will prevent fires, reduce energy bills and prolong the life of your clothes dryer.
