The initial purchase of a stand-alone home in the Greater Toronto Area can be costly, so it is no wonder that multi-unit properties are such a popular alternative. Apartments and condominium complexes provide tenants with tons of resources – namely laundry facilities. Communal laundry rooms are under constant strain and are often overworked, which makes maintenance extremely important. Far from mechanical maintenance alone, an Etobicoke dryer vent cleaning is necessary to keep systems going strong.
The Advantages of Regular Cleaning
All clothes dryers come equipped with basic lint traps. These thin pieces of mesh are designed to trap and hold lint, but small pieces of debris still manage to sneak through. These odds and ends that blow passed traps are known to sit inside ducts and along vents. The same principal applies to appliances in communal areas. In addition to apartment blocks, assisted living facilities, hospitals, schools and hotels do dozens of loads of laundry every day. Bit by bit, that adds up to large blockages and clogs.
When systems become clogged, air flow is not able to circulate properly. As air cannot rotate out, clothes are left damp, forcing tenants to run repeat loads. In addition to unnecessary wear and tear, these repeat runs introduce more debris into the system. Sitting, damp air, combined with mold, mildew, and bacteria lurking behind the scenes, air quality becomes poor and even dangerous. The elderly, children and anyone with a compromised immune system can become ill from exposure to any of these elements. Along with unseen health issues, lint collection is also a major fire hazard. Keeping tenants safe and healthy is a top priority, so let our Gorillas help with regular cleaning services. Trust professionals to thoroughly clean your dryer vents and prevent an unfortunate dryer fire.

Specially designed vacuums and brushes allow your maintenance team to not only suck up blockages, but scrub surfaces clean. For good measure, imaging tools are used to see inside more complicated areas. Photos of the interior of dryer ducts ensure nothing is forgotten or left behind, but they also provide clients with before and after photos of their dryer duct cleaning.
