Brooklyn Dryer Vent Installation Wizard Informs Residents about Building Code Changes
Dryer manufacturers, firefighters, insurance companies and the Wizard are just a few authorities who are working to educate consumers about building and safety codes requiring rigid metal dryer venting
Brooklyn, NY – The Brooklyn Dryer Vent Installation Wizard is working to inform area residents about building and safety codes requiring rigid metal dryer venting. Many people are unaware of the danger of using the vinyl or flexible foil venting kits sold in hardware stores. They are cheap and easy to install, but unfortunately, they are designed for bathroom exhaust fans, not the extreme heat produced by a dryer.
Though failure to clean dryer vents is the leading cause of dryer fires, installing an inferior system will also create a hazard. The vinyl duct systems have ridges that collect even more lint. A solid metal dryer duct is smooth inside and much more efficient. But, the Wizard warns residents that even the very best dryer vent system installed by the Wizard will require periodic dryer vent cleaning service. All dryers produce lint, which is warm and moist when removed from tumbling laundry, therefore, it can stick to the inside of the dryer vent tube where it dries and attracts more lint.
Without proper maintenance, the dryer vent is a potential fire hazard that exists in over 80% of American homes. Unfortunately, too few consumers are aware of this dangerous condition. As dryer vent systems become clogged with lint, each load of laundry increases the chance of a dryer fire. Professional dryer vent installation followed by regularly scheduled dryer vent inspection and maintenance will eliminate the hazard. Dryer Vent Wizard (http://dryerventcleaningman.blogspot.com/) is the highest qualified dryer vent service provider in the nation.
John Ryley, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, provides commercial and residential dryer vent cleaning, dryer vent repair and new dryer vent installation while educating customers about the hazards associated with poorly vented clothes dryers. Fire fighters, insurance companies and dryer manufacturers all warn consumers about improper dryer vent installation and poorly maintained dryer vent systems.
According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), any vent over 25 feet is considered a fire hazard and installation of a booster fan is recommended. This helps dryers function safely and more efficiently and is one of the services the Wizard provides.
Ryley believes the solution to the problem is creating consumer awareness of the importance of maintaining dryers and dryer vents. The most common sign of a venting problem is when drying time increases. Increased drying time almost always indicates a venting problem caused by lint accumulation.
Dryer Vent wizard provides dryer vent cleaning and professional dryer vent installation for homes and businesses, apartments and condos, public laundries and pet shelters, and anyone who owns a clothes dryer. John Ryley serves residents and business owners in Suffolk County, Southampton, Huntington, Manorville and nearby cities and communities.
