How Do Dryer Vents Affect Indoor Air Quality?
It’s not every day that you think of your dryer vents. However, they can and do affect the indoor air quality within your home.
Ensuring your dryer vents are clear will improve the quality of the air circulating within your home by allowing for the proper ventilation of the fumes generated by both natural and synthetic fabrics heated in the dryer.
At United Air Temp, we provide dryer vent cleaning services to effectively remove the dust, lint, and other pollutants that accumulate within your dryer. This ensures the gases generated by your dryer vent go outside and not into your home.

When Should You Schedule Professional Dryer Vent Cleaning?
We recommend yearly dryer vent cleaning for most homes. However, if you have a large family or use your dryer daily, you may require more frequent service. It’s important to hire a professional to perform this task to ensure that the dryer vent is thoroughly cleaned and that all fittings and fixtures are properly secured when the job is done.
Many homeowners only clean the lint trap, not realizing that this doesn’t sufficiently clear the vent. This is a crucial oversight because improper or incomplete cleaning can leave lint and other debris lodged in the vent, which can overheat and ignite a fire. That’s not even mentioning that the process requires moving the dryer. Dryers can be notoriously difficult to move due to the weight and awkward handling points on many models.
This means it is easy to suffer a personal injury or damage your dryer, floor, and drywall if you try DIY dryer vent cleaning. When you hire a professional, all you have to do is sit back and wait as the work is completed. United Air Temp can complete the job safely, quickly, and effectively.
Signs You Need Dryer Vent Cleaning
It is crucial to pay close attention to the following signs that your dryer vent requires cleaning. If you notice any of these, we recommend scheduling a service appointment without delay:
- There’s excessive lint and debris on your clothing.
- Your clothes take a long time to dry.
- You still have wet laundry when the dry cycle completes.
- Your laundry is too hot to touch.
- Your laundry room feels hot and humid.
- You smell moldy and musty odors near your dryer.
