With a growing population, it is always better to build up than out. This is why residents are noticing more and more multi-unit properties in their communities. These might be living spaces like apartments and condos, or schools, hospitals and even hotels. No matter their use, all of these properties have one thing in common: amenities, laundry rooms in particular. Where there are clothes dryers, there are dryer ducts that need cleaning. Instead of struggling to keep up with demand, have a Gorilla handle your Moncton dryer vent cleaning.
The Downside of Duct Blockages
Depending on the size of your household, an average property goes through one to three loads of laundry a week. In high traffic areas like hotels or hospitals, staff can expect about three times that. It is difficult to keep up with all that washing and folding, so it is no wonder that regular dryer duct cleaning is often overlooked. It is easy enough to procrastinate on a chore here or there but neglecting your air duct systems can be dangerous. It is hard to imagine that a bit of lint and damp can have a very big impact on your property but a clogged air duct and dryer vent system can damage appliances, impact indoor air quality and even be a fire hazard.
While it is true that clothes dryers come equipped with a removable lint trap, there is only so much that a mesh screen can do. With each load of laundry, small bits of lint, hair, paper and other debris squeeze passed these screens, becoming lodged in vents. Eventually, a little bit here and a little bit there adds up! As blockages grow and begin to restrict air flow, this buildup holds on to dampness and moisture. A damp environment is a key place for mold to grow. This means that contaminated air is then re-circulated through laundry rooms, spreading allergens and bacteria. With friends, family, clients and tenants depending on reliable laundry facilities, it is vital to keep them running smoothly. Instead of just being a health hazard, blocked systems around multi-unit homes or commercial properties, put strain on your machines.
Cutting Costs Around Residential, Commercial and Strata Properties
Hiring a professional for your dryer vent cleaning service might seem like an unnecessary expense but nothing could be further from the truth. In addition to preventing dryer fires, regular vent cleaning service can cut every day costs and prolong the life of your appliances. Restricted airflow means that clothing or other linens do not dry properly. This means extra loads and unnecessary strain on your system. It also means higher energy costs. Between paying daily bills and covering the costs of premature repairs or replacements, choosing commercial duct cleaning services are the obvious choice.
