Repair and Maintenance: Dryer vent cleaning is important to promote dryer fire
prevention and efficient dryer function. Dryer repair technicians strongly
recommend annual dryer vent inspection and routine appointed dryer vent
cleaning service to be sure the dryer operates as safely and effectively as
possible.

lint build up leading to potential dryer performance problems. Owners need to pay
heed to these indications to save precious resources, while warding off a
