Dryer Vent Cleaning

Why have the dryer vents cleaned?

According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission's 1997 Residential Fire Loss Estimates (latest information available) - 16,700 residential fires originated from dryer vents. 30 deaths and $84 million in property damage resulted from these fires. The previously reported number from 1995 was 13,700. The number of residential fires attributed to dryer vents in on the increase.
Reasons for inspection and cleaning:

1. Increased drying time?
2. Is the dryer operating hotter than normal?
3. Reduces chance of dryer vent fire. When the dryer is used, over time lint will collect and adhere to the inside of the dryer vent walls. The larger the buildup, the larger the risk of having a dryer vent fire.
4. Reduces "wasted electricity" and "appliance stress". Use of a dryer with a dirty vent can cause the dryer to run longer to dry the same amount of clothes because the hot air being expelled cannot freely exit the vent. Longer drying time takes more electricity and puts added stress on the appliance.

How do you clean the dryer vent ?
Depending on what type of dryer you have - stackable, side-by-side, gas or electric - and how your dryer is vented - through the wall, up through the roof, across the inside of the ceiling, etc. - the basic procedure is the same.
Our service technician will inspect the dryer vent. We use air pressure and agitation tools along with vacuum to clean out the entire vent. Once the cleaning equipment has traveled the length of the vent enough times to thoroughly clean the vent, we'll clean out the connection piece, reattach your dryer and recheck the vent while your dryer is operating. We also have video inspection equipment we can use.

Ultra Violet Light - A safe and natural way to sanitize the Air in your house 24/7.

Ultar Violet home air sanitizer uses UV light to purify indoor air

Ultraviolet Air Sanitizer uses ultraviolet light to neutralize airborne bacteria, molds, and dust mites

We spend up to 90 percent of our time indoors and according the the Environmental Protection Agency, the air inside our homes is up to 100 times more polluted than outdoor air. If too little microorganisms can collect to levels that pose health and comfort problems. This problem can be especially serious in energy efficient homes built in the last twenty years. These homes may not allow enough air changes, keeping contaminated air in and fresh air out.

Installed in the main supply or return duct of a forced air heating or air conditioning system, UV Home Air Sanitizer operates continuously to purify the air in your home 24 hours a day. Emits powerful ultraviolet (UV) light, which sterilizes and reduces airborne microorganisms as they pass through the system.

The two primary benefits to using UV light are disinfecting air and preventing growth of mold. The UV light radiates a surface to keep mold from growing in that area and disinfects the air stream as it passes through the HVAC system.

In one pass over the UV lamp, a high disinfection rate is not normally accomplished in the air stream. However, the home's air is recirculated more than 50 times a day during normal operation of the heating or air conditioning system. Continued exposure to UV reduces airborne contamination, improving the indoor air quality of the entire home. With repeated circulation of air through the system, a major disinfection rate is accomplished, making use of UV light very positive.

UV whole house air purifier helps protect your most valuable asset, your family's health. Ultraviolet purification helps reduce the symptoms of allergies, asthma, and other respiratory problems resulting in less work and school missed due to illness.

According to Richard Riley, M.D., "...ultraviolet radiation, properly integrated with heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems, shows the most promise as a widely applicable means of air disinfection." The process of ultraviolet purification, used by hospitals, schools, day care centers, restaurants, and hotels, is now available for the homeowner in the Air Health.

Works on all types of forced warm air furnaces and split unit heat pumps. UV sanitizer is designed for indoor mounting only. Plugs into any standard 120V outlet.

Improve the air you breathe
Have you found yourself or family members more prone to allergic reactions and flare-ups recently? Does it always seem like you have nasal irritations, throat congestion or watery eyes?

If so, you might be inhaling pollutants while inside the safety of your own home and not be aware of it. Your ventilation system could be breeding ground for dust mites and a receptacle for millions of dust particles, pollen, dander, mold and mildew spores. When you

inhale the air inside your house you also inhale these contaminants, making you that much more susceptible to respiratory illnesses and allergy flare-ups.

This increased concentration of dust in your ventilation systems can lead to the environment inside your home being up to 100 times more polluted than the outside environment. Whether you’re at home, at school, in a mall or any other enclosed space the air contains c

ontaminants that are invisible to the naked eye.

Our crew uses patented equipment to reach through the vents and right in to the ductwork. No part of the system is left untouched, and all dust and grime is sucked out and collected back into the equipment for disposal
We follow this vacuuming process by using an EPA registered fog agent that kills all traces of germs and bacteria, mold and mildew spores that may still be lurking deep inside your system. Now the air in your home is fresh, clean and pure - the way it should be!
