What is Dryer Vent Cleaning

Dryer vent cleaning is a similar service to air duct cleaning.  There are many ducts in your home, including HVAC, or your AC Unit, and the Furnace. These ducts are designed to bring air into your home, or to let it outside. Vent cleaning companies will come to your home and use an industrial vacuum, along with an agitator, to break off old dirt and grime and suction it out of your home. If you ask friends and family for recommendations on "dryer vent cleaning in my area", they will usually refer you to the best local companies. You can also look for reviews of the companies here in Richmond to see who was satisfied with the cleaning process. 

One of the best things about this service is how quick and efficient it is. While doing it on your own with a vacuum is doable, the average vacuum doesn’t have the suction to get everything out of your vent. Calling in a professional team to do it will get more of the dirt out, helping lengthen the life of your dryer. 

How to Clean Your Dryer Vent

The procedure of cleaning your outside dryer duct is simple. You can find the dryer vent outside of your home. There is usually a cover to protect things from getting inside it. Remove the cover and use a vacuum to pull whatever you can from the vent. This process will usually result in a lot of dirt and debris floating in the air, so keep in mind you can get pretty dirty doing it.

Often times, when people here locally go to clean out their dryer duct, they find that there is damage near the outside. If you hire Richmond Duct to clean it, we will do the repair on the spot while we are there, saving you the headache.
