Dryer Vent Cleaning Milford Wizard Reminds People to Observe Fire
Prevention Month
Over 17,000 dryer fires occur each year and dryer vent cleaning is the best way to ensure safety…the Wizard urges homeowners to schedule a dryer vent inspection to be sure their dryer is working safely and efficiently
Milford, CT – According to the Milford Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard maintenance is the best way to prevent dryer fires and improve dryer performance. Don Brusseau, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard recalls one dryer fire that claimed the lives of two pet parakeets. “It’s a shame when people are injured or pets are killed by a fire that could have easily been prevented,” said Brusseau.
Fire officials found burned clothing in the clothes dryer, a possible indication that the dryer was the cause of a fire resulting in extensive heat and smoke damage to a condo. Residents were not at home; two pet parakeets were killed. Brusseau warns his customers to never leave home or go to sleep when the dryer is running.
In observance of National Fire Prevention Month in October the Dryer Vent Cleaning Milford Wizard joins Wizards across the nation to encourage consumers to schedule a dryer vent inspection for safety and efficiency. The number of dryer fires has increased to over 17,000 per year, with failure to clean dryer vents being the leading cause. Poorly installed dryer vents can also lead to dryer fires.
Education is a vital part of Dryer Vent Wizard’s (http://milfordct.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) service and Brusseau explains to his customers how a clogged dryer vent can cause a dryer fire. Clothes dryers require sufficient air-flow to do their job. Heat and moisture must be able to escape the dryer drum in order for clothes to dry. Dryer lint that gets past the lint filter will become trapped and build up in the dryer duct and block airflow. When left unchecked the dryer will overheat and cause the flammable lint to ignite. Annual dryer vent cleaning will reduce the risk of a dryer fire and increase dryer efficiency.
Dryer Vent Wizard franchisees are happy to educate their customers while providing a vital service. Don Brusseau encourages everyone who owns a clothes dryer to have their dryer vent inspected by a certified dryer exhaust technician to ensure proper dryer function.
