What Clean Vents Actually Do

Your clothes dry faster. Your energy bill drops. Your house stays safe.

When your dryer vent is clogged with lint, your dryer works three times harder to push hot air through that blockage. That means longer drying cycles, higher electric bills, and a real fire risk sitting in your laundry room.

Clean vents change everything. Clothes dry in one cycle instead of two or three. Your dryer stops overheating. The lint that’s been building up for months gets completely removed from places you can’t reach. Most homeowners see their drying time cut in half after professional dryer vent cleaning, and many notice their energy bills drop within the first month.

Elvira Dryer Vent Experts

We Know San Diego County Homes

Blue Team Carpet Cleaning has been serving Elvira and surrounding San Diego County areas for years. We understand how California’s climate affects your home’s ventilation systems.

Most dryer vent problems we see come from lint buildup that homeowners can’t access. The exterior vent gets clogged with debris, or lint packs into the ductwork where regular cleaning can’t reach. We’ve seen what happens when these issues go unaddressed, and we know exactly how to fix them right the first time.

Our Dryer Vent Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

We start by disconnecting your dryer and inspecting the entire vent system from inside your home to the exterior exit point. Most companies skip this step, but it’s the only way to see where the real problems are.

Next, we use professional-grade equipment to clean out every inch of ductwork. This isn’t a shop vacuum or basic brush. Our tools are designed specifically for dryer vents and can remove lint buildup that’s been accumulating for years. We clean the exterior vent opening, remove any debris or obstructions, and make sure airflow is completely restored.

Before we finish, we test your dryer to confirm proper airflow and check that everything is reconnected correctly. You’ll see the difference immediately when your clothes start drying faster.

Complete Dryer Vent Cleaning

What's Included in Every Service

Every dryer vent cleaning includes complete ductwork cleaning from your dryer to the exterior vent, exterior vent inspection and debris removal, and airflow testing to confirm proper operation.

We bring professional equipment that reaches deep into your vent system where lint builds up over time. Many Elvira homes have longer vent runs or multiple bends that trap more lint than standard configurations. We account for these factors and adjust our cleaning process accordingly.

You’ll also get a clear explanation of what we found and recommendations for maintaining your system. Most homes need professional cleaning every 1-2 years, but homes with longer vent runs or heavy dryer use may need more frequent service.

Most homes need professional dryer vent cleaning every 1-2 years, but this depends on how often you use your dryer and the length of your vent run. If you’re running multiple loads per week or have a long vent that goes through several walls or up to the roof, you might need annual cleaning. Signs that you need service sooner include clothes taking longer to dry, the dryer getting very hot, or lint appearing around the exterior vent opening. If you’ve never had your vents professionally cleaned and you’ve lived in your home for more than two years, it’s definitely time.
Yes, clogged dryer vents are responsible for thousands of house fires every year. When lint builds up in your vent system, it restricts airflow and causes your dryer to overheat. Lint is extremely flammable, and the combination of heat buildup and combustible material creates a serious fire risk. The lint that accumulates deep in your ductwork can’t be removed with regular cleaning – it requires professional equipment to reach these areas safely. This is why the National Fire Protection Association recommends annual professional dryer vent cleaning for most homes.
Clean dryer vents typically reduce drying time by 25-50%, which directly translates to lower energy costs. When your vent is clogged, your dryer has to run longer cycles and work harder to dry clothes, sometimes requiring two or three cycles for loads that should dry in one. Most homeowners see a noticeable difference in their electric bill within the first month after professional cleaning. The exact savings depend on how often you do laundry and how clogged your vents were, but many customers report saving $10-30 per month on energy costs.
DIY dryer vent cleaning typically only reaches the first few feet of ductwork and can’t access the areas where most serious blockages occur. Professional cleaning uses specialized equipment that can navigate the entire length of your vent system, including bends and vertical runs that trap the most lint. We also clean and inspect the exterior vent opening, which many homeowners can’t safely access. Professional service includes airflow testing to confirm the system is working properly and can identify potential problems like damaged ductwork or improper installation that DIY cleaning would miss.
Most dryer vent cleaning jobs take 45 minutes to 1.5 hours, depending on the length and complexity of your vent system. Simple, short runs might be finished in under an hour, while longer vents that go to the roof or have multiple bends take more time. We don’t rush the process because thorough cleaning requires time to properly remove all lint buildup and test the system. You’ll be able to use your dryer immediately after we finish, and you should notice improved performance right away.
Our service focuses on the dryer vent system – the ductwork that carries hot air from your dryer to the outside of your home. This includes cleaning the vent connection behind your dryer, all ductwork, and the exterior vent opening. We don’t disassemble your dryer internally, but we do clean lint from the connection point and can remove your dryer’s lint screen for thorough cleaning if needed. If we notice issues with your dryer itself during our inspection, we’ll let you know what we found and recommend next steps.
