Vents Dryer Vent Cleaning & Repair
Did
you know? Every year, more than 24,000 dryer fires cause in
excess of $50 million in property damage in the U.S. alone.
Many of these fires result in injury and death. Lint is combustible,
and when dryers can't expel hot air – inefficiency,
dryer damage, and fire are the result. Most dryer damage and
fires could be prevented with proper vent maintenance.
Who Needs This Service?
Almost everyone with a dryer does! Especially those homes
with dryers located on inside walls. These centralized locations
cause dryers to be vented greater distances, resulting in
lint buildup and other obstructions which seriously affect
the performance of dryers. All dryer manufacturers recommend
the yearly delinting of dryer vents.
Jax Vents Chimney Sweep, Clean & Repair
Did you know? The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission
reports that in 2007, 5,500 fires were attributed to chimneys.
As a result of these fires, 130 people died, 230 people were
injured, and total property loss was set at more than $184.4
million. In addition, there were a minimum of 119 deaths from
carbon monoxide and at least 4,700 injuries were reported
for the same time frame, though most estimates range much
higher.
Who Needs This Service?
Most homeowners have little working knowledge of chimney and
venting systems. This situation is complicated by the fact
that faults, damage and problems are rarely visible to the
casual observer. The threat of chimney fires and unsafe indoor
air quality conditions can be greatly reduced, perhaps even
eliminated, if homeowners only understood that chimneys require
regular maintenance. Regular maintenance by our knowledgeable
service staff can help stop your chimney and fireplace from
becoming a problem.
