About 35% of the lint from your clothing escapes the lint trap. The residual debris accumulates in your dryer ducts. Animal nests can pose a threat to vent safety. A dryer fire can be caused when hot air from your dryer exhaust meets with any type of dryer vent debris. Annually, dryers cause an average of 15,000 fires, 400 injuries and 20 deaths.
Clean the air you breathe
Each time you use your dryer, a damaged or clogged dryer vent adds one to two gallons of moisture to the air. Excess moisture promotes the growth of harmful bacteria and mildew which can create unhealthy conditions for you and your family.
Save money on your electric bills
Today, conscientious energy use is important in every household. Wasting electricity costs you money and unnecessarily depletes resources. Even with a clean vent, your dryer is the second least energy efficient appliance. If debris is restricting the air flow in a dryer vent , it causes your dryer work harder and longer. A back draft of heat can cause your dryer to over-heat, leading to costly repairs or even replacement of the unit.
Kitchen Vents
Kitchen vents are easily overlooked and can be a serious health issue. Birds, which carry diseases and parasites, nest in these vents, causing damage and unsanitary conditions. Once the kitchen vent gets blocked with a bird nest, there is a back-drafting of carbon dioxide gas, humidity and parasites onto your kitchen stove top. This could cause the kitchen vent fan motor to overheat, resulting in the destruction of the element. We strongly suggest the installation of animal guards to prevent this from happening to you. We call this our clean and screen method.

Attic Vents and Soffits
Unobstructed attic vents and soffits are critical to the health and energy efficiency of your home. A clear airflow path takes in cooler outside air and creates a current that forces warm air out through the attic vents. Dust, dirt, loose insulation, and water can accumulate in the ventilation paths and hinder the many advantages.
