As a property owner, it is easy to overlook your appliances. With a hectic schedule, it can be tough to notice when your machines are struggling, particularly clothes dryers. Dryers often go years without the right attention, but these appliances can have a big impact on your living or workspace. If you are noticing a drop in functionality, call a Gorilla for your Muskoka dryer vent cleaning.
How Does A Clogged Dryer Vent Impact Your Space?
Whether in a residential or commercial property, the laundry room is the heart and soul of any property. A functional washer and dryer can help to keep single family environments clean, as well as multi-unit spaces such as apartment or condo complexes, or commercial spaces such as hospitals, care facilities, hotels and more.
A single family home might see several loads of laundry a week while a high traffic environment might go through more than a dozen per day. No matter the size, style or usage of your machine, each of these is outfitted with both a dryer exhaust fan and a lint trap, which work hand in hand to keep your system running smoothly.
With each load of laundry that passes through your system, bits of lint and debris are let loose. These items become lodged in your lint trap. A mesh lint filter helps to trap and hold foreign items, but these traps can’t catch everything. Anything that sneaks passed these filters is damp and sticks to the inner areas of the hose attachment and dryer duct. This poses serious risk of dryer fire and can have a negative impact on indoor air quality.
In addition to a fire hazard, a lack of regular cleanings can lead to an inefficient appliance. If air ducts become clogged, clothing takes longer to dry, leading to repeat loads. Running a dryer more than once increases utility bills and leads to unnecessary wear and tear on your system, reducing the lifespan of your machine.
