Dryer Vent Cleaning
Definition
Dryer vent cleaning is the removal of accumulated lint and debris from the duct line connecting a clothes dryer to the home's exterior vent. The U.S. Fire Administration attributes roughly 2,900 home fires per year to clogged dryer vents — most preventable with annual cleaning.
