Is Your Dryer Wasting Energy and Money?

If you are running your dryer for 2 or 3 cycles just to get one load of towels dry, you are throwing money out the window. A clogged vent is the number one reason for an inefficient dryer.

The Cost of Inefficiency

The dryer is typically the second most energy-hungry appliance in your home, right after your HVAC system. When the vent is clear, a modern dryer should easily dry a normal load in 45-60 minutes.

When lint blocks the exhaust, the hot, moist air cannot escape. The dryer simply tumbles your clothes in a humid environment. Forcing the machine to run for two hours instead of 45 minutes effectively doubles your electricity or gas bill for that appliance. Over a year, this can add hundreds of dollars to your utility costs.

The Solution Pays for Itself

A professional vent cleaning often pays for itself within a few months just in energy savings. Not only will your clothes dry faster, but your machine will last much longer when it doesn't have to work in a state of constant overheating.
