Reduce your electric bill now by servicing your dryer

Here are ways to cut the amount of energy and money you spend drying clothes:

  • Keep your lint filter clean. Cleaning your filter after every load will improve air circulation and increase the efficiency of your dryer.
  • Scrub your lint filter regularly if you use dryer sheets. Dryer sheets can leave a film on the filter which can reduce air flow and, over time, will affect the performance of the dryers motor. Use a toothbrush to scrub it clean at least once a month.
  • Make sure your clothes dryer is vented properly. If you vent the exhaust outside, use the straightest and shortest metal duct available. Flexible vinyl duct isn’t recommended because it restricts the airflow, can be crushed, and may not withstand high temperatures from the dryer.
  • Check the outside dryer exhaust vent periodically. If it doesn’t close tightly, replace it with one that does to keep the outside air from leaking in. This will reduce heating and cooling bills.
  • Dry only full loads, as small loads are less economical; but do not overload the dryer.
  • When drying, separate your clothes and dry similar types of clothes together. Lightweight synthetics, for example, dry much more quickly than bath towels and natural fiber clothes.
  • Dry two or more loads in a row, taking advantage of the dryer’s retained heat.
  • Use the cool-down cycle to allow the clothes to finish drying with the residual heat in inside the dryer.

Prevent a house fire caused by your dryer

A dryer can become a dangerous incendiary device because of the many ways that it can cause other objects to ignite. Too much dust is the main culprit because dust builds up with each use. Even when you clean and remove dust from the filter, there are so many cracks and crevices that will allow the dust to settle inside the machine.

Just because you keep a clean and neat dryer, it is always the dust that you cannot see that can be a problem. For instance, if you can ever open up a dryer that is at least 7 years old you will most likely find a blanket on the floor of the dryer. No this is not the blanket that you lost a year ago. This is a blanket of dust that is patiently waiting for a spark from any source that is willing to give it a light.  Contact us now for an affordable dryer clean out. Let us get your dryer back to factory condition making your dryer run safer and more efficient.
