(WashingtonDC.CityRegions.Com, March 25, 2015 ) Lovettsville, VA -- According to the Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard, longer drying time is a normal warning sign of a fire danger. Sorry to say, many people believe this signifies aging or wear so they proceed with wearing out their clothes dryer, unconscious of the hazard lurking and growing inside. As opposed to most appliances, when a tumble dryer begins losing efficiency, it is not an ordinary indicator of old age. It is very likely generated by a blocked dryer duct restricting air flow.
Extended drying time, especially with jeans and towels, is a sign of minimized airflow. Deficient airflow is generally the result of an impaired dryer vent system, probably clogged with lint. Excess dryer lint can cause damage to the dryer and it is a serious fire hazard. According to the Wizard (http://www.NorthernVirginia.DryerVentCleaningNow.com) an overheating clothes dryer might be compared with a ticking time bomb, about to erupt into flames with the next load of clothes!
Restricted airflow hinders dryer performance, minimizes efficiency and results in increased energy expenses. Besides longer drying time, warning signs from the dryer include consistently stopping during a cycle, clothes feel hot immediately after a cycle and the top of the dryer hot to touch while operating.
A safety feature included with some units makes the dryer stop during a cycle if it is getting too hot. A dryer vent congested with lint or other blockages will cause the dryer to work harder and longer, causing it to overheat. The overheat shutoff is the dryer's effort to prevent a fire.
When the laundry room is very hot and humid when the dryer is running or the top of the dryer is hot to touch then this signifies inadequate airflow. A clogged dryer vent, or improper dryer vent installation can cause this predicament. When dried laundry is hot after a cycle this is also a warning sign of poor ventilation.
A hot tumble dryer and hot clothing are both warning signs of lint accumulating and causing an obstruction. Dryer Vent Wizard will carry out a complete dryer vent evaluation to ensure it is installed the right way, using the right materials and he will make sure there are no blockages in the system that can prohibit airflow. He will also look for faulty seams and poor connectors to ensure the greatest efficiency. See www.northernvirginiadryervent.com to learn more.
