Dryer Vent Cleaning Service
Lint builds up fast. When it does, your dryer works harder, dries slower, and can become a safety risk.America’s Chimney Sweep provides professional dryer vent cleaning and repair to help protect your home and improve dryer performance.
Why Dryer Vent Cleaning Matters
A clogged vent can trap heat and moisture. That leads to longer dry times, higher energy use, and more wear on your dryer.
Regular vent cleaning removes lint and keeps airflow moving the way it should.
- Improved safety: removes lint buildup that can overheat.
- Better efficiency: helps clothes dry faster.
- Lower utility costs: reduces unnecessary run time.
- Longer dryer life: less strain on the appliance.
Signs Your Dryer Vent Needs Cleaning
- Clothes take longer than normal to dry
- Dryer feels hotter than usual
- Burning smell or musty odor during a cycle
- Lint visible around the dryer or vent connection
- Outside vent hood is weak, stuck, or not opening fully
