LAUNDRY EXHAUST DUCT CLEANING
Gone are the days when humans had to wash his clothes manually and were needed for sunshine to get the clothes dried. Now it all has been done with the help of a washing machine that dries the clothes too with the help of a dryer. But these machines are not all good stories as they have another side too.
The dryer can be very dangerous for a home or laundry if it has not been inspected regularly. It must be in our knowledge that thousands of structural fires occur every year due to clothes dryer.
The most common cause of dryer fires is a clogged duct of the machine. It is therefore essential that the laundry exhaust ducts are cleaned and maintained regularly.
WHAT IS DUCT CLOGGING
The duct or vent of a dryer is supposed to collect the lint that is shed out of clothes in the process of drying. This lint forms a thick layer on the duct if it is not cleaned properly. This layer of lint is very dangerous for a machine as it increases the airflow that may lead to a serious fire hazard.
Besides it there may be some leaks inside the dryer that increase the heat loss inside a machine. The ducts may be loose after some time that is supposed to be replaced. So a dryer must be inspected and cleaned by a professional and experienced technician.
The Robotic Cleaning Service is a team that makes sure that all the visible lint and debris are removed from the exhaust system. A duct, if found loose during the inspection, is replaced and leaks are fixed with much care by our professionals.
We inspect all vents to ensure they are working properly and up to the current code. We use special tools and equipment for cleaning action to not leave any mess behind.
HOW OFTEN A DRYER IS NEEDED OF CLEANING
Laundry exhaust duct cleaning and dryer cleaning depends upon the usage of the dryer. You should get your dryer inspected and cleaned once every three to twelve months.
But if a dryer goes through with a heavy load of clothes daily it should be cleaned on shorter periods. If you do laundry less frequently then once in a year cleaning action will be sufficient.
THE MAIN BENEFITS OF EXHAUST DUCT CLEANING
A cleaned vent of a dryer ensures
- That we are going to have shorter drying cycles. It means that a dryer will consume less time to get the clothes dried.
- This service ensures safety as an outdoor flap properly opens during operation.
- A cleaning service makes it pocket friendly as a dryer with a clean vent consumes less energy. So less consumption of energy brings the lighter bills.

ADVANTAGES OF PROFESSIONAL DRYER VENT CLEANINGs
Though some of the areas of a dryer vent can easily be cleaned by anyone there are some other areas of this machine that demands special careful handling of a trained professional.
The lint catcher and tailpipe are the very sensitive parts of a dryer’s venting system that must not be dealt with by an unprofessional hand. We as a team apply some innovative techniques to deal with these sensitive areas of a dryer. Our team shall do the following:
- The dryer cord is disconnected from the power supply, gas valves are closed, and the lint trap filter is removed. This filter is vacuumed cleaned with a special skinny hose brush.
- The duct joints are gently pulled and are cleaned with special long brush kits. Brushes are moved in and out of the duct to ensure it is cleaned thoroughly.
- Vent caps are cleaned and all system is replaced to its original position.
Be sure that our technician will remove the lint and other debris that could lead to fire after jamming the venting system. Robotic Cleaning Services are a leading name in the field of cleaning service and we have achieved this position with a continuous series of hard work and commitment.
