Frequently asked questions

The NFPA recommends at least once per year. Large households or pet owners may need every 6 months.

Warning signs: clothes taking multiple cycles to dry, the dryer or laundry room getting excessively hot, burning smell, or lint visible around the outside vent. If it's been over a year, it's time.

Residential cleaning typically runs $90–$180 depending on vent length and accessibility. Complex routes or severely clogged systems may cost more. We provide free quotes upfront.

You can clean the lint trap and short section behind the dryer, but full-length vent cleaning requires professional rotary brush systems and high-powered vacuums that reach 20+ feet. DIY kits miss dangerous blockages.

Most residential cleanings take 30–60 minutes. Complex systems with long runs or roof vents may take up to 90 minutes.
