Air Duct & Dryer Vent

Cleaner Air, Safer Dryer.

What’s included

Done properly.

The air in your home moves through ducts you never see, and the lint from every load of laundry passes through a dryer vent you probably haven't thought about. Over time both collect dust, debris and lint. Thoro Clean matches you with a vetted, insured local pro who cleans your ducts and clears your dryer vent with professional equipment, so air moves freely and your dryer works the way it should.

Why dryer vents matter

A dryer pushes hot, damp air and lint through a vent to the outside. The lint screen catches most of it, but not all. What gets past builds up inside the vent, especially in long runs or ones with bends. A clogged vent makes the dryer work harder: loads take longer to dry, the dryer and laundry room get hot, and energy is wasted. Lint is also highly flammable, which is why a blocked dryer vent is a known fire risk. Clearing the vent from end to end is a simple step that helps the dryer run better and lowers that risk. Air ducts are different. Cleaning them removes dust and debris that collect over the years, which is especially worth doing after a renovation, when moving into a home, or if you notice dust blowing from the vents.

Timing

How often should you clean air ducts and dryer vents?

Most homes benefit from a dryer vent cleaning about once a year. Large households that do a lot of laundry, or homes with long or winding vent runs, may need it more often. Signs it's due: clothes taking longer to dry, a dryer that's hot to the touch, a musty or burning smell, or lint collecting around the outside vent. Air ducts usually need cleaning far less often, typically every few years, or after renovation work, when moving in, or if you have pets or allergies. Both can be booked on the same visit.

Questions

Good to know.

Is a clogged dryer vent really a fire risk?

Yes, lint buildup in dryer vents is a common cause of dryer fires. Keeping the vent clear, along with cleaning the lint screen every load, is one of the simplest ways to reduce that risk.

How do I know my dryer vent needs cleaning?

Loads that take longer than they used to, a dryer that runs hot, a burning smell, or lint around the outside vent are all signs. If it's been more than a year, it's probably due.

Will air duct cleaning help with dust?

Cleaning removes the dust and debris that have built up in your ducts. It's one part of keeping dust down, along with changing your air filters on schedule.

Can you clean a dryer vent that exits through the roof?

Often, yes. Let us know where your vent exits when you request your quote so your pro can plan for it.

How long does it take?

A dryer vent on its own is often done within an hour or two. Air ducts take longer, depending on the size of the home and the number of vents. Your quote confirms the time window.
