What Clean Vents Actually Do

Your clothes dry faster. Your energy bill drops. Most importantly, you sleep better knowing your family isn’t at risk from one of the leading causes of house fires.

When your dryer vent is properly cleaned, everything works the way it should. No more running two or three cycles to dry a single load. No more wondering if that burning smell is normal.

Clean vents mean your dryer uses less energy to do its job. In California, where every dollar on your utility bill counts, that’s money back in your pocket every month.

Our technicians understand how California homes are built and where lint likes to hide. We’re not just carpet cleaners who picked up a brush – we’re trained in proper vent cleaning techniques.

Our Dryer Vent Process

Here's Exactly What We Do

First, we disconnect your dryer and inspect the entire vent system. We’re looking for blockages, damage, or code violations that could cause problems.

Then we clean from both ends – inside your home and at the exterior vent. Our equipment pulls out lint, debris, and anything else that’s restricting airflow. This isn’t a quick brush job.

We test the system when we’re done to make sure air flows properly. You’ll see the difference immediately when you run your first load. We also let you know if we found anything that needs attention.

Complete Vent Cleaning Service

What's Included in Every Job

You get a complete cleaning of your entire dryer vent system – not just the easy-to-reach parts. We clean the vent line, check the exterior termination, and inspect for proper installation.

We bring professional-grade equipment that actually removes embedded lint. The brushes and vacuum attachments you can buy at the store don’t have the power to do this job right.

Every service includes an inspection report. If we find damage, improper installation, or code violations, we’ll explain what needs to be fixed and why it matters for your safety.

Most homes need dryer vent cleaning every 1-2 years, but it depends on how much you use your dryer and what you’re drying. If you have a large family doing multiple loads daily, you’ll need cleaning more often. If you notice clothes taking longer to dry, that’s usually the first sign your vent needs attention. Homes with longer vent runs or multiple bends also accumulate lint faster and need more frequent service.
The biggest red flag is clothes taking multiple cycles to dry completely, especially heavy items like towels or jeans. You might also notice the dryer getting extremely hot, a burning smell during operation, or lint visible around the outside vent opening. If your laundry room feels more humid than usual or you see condensation, that’s another sign airflow is restricted. Don’t ignore these warning signs – they indicate your dryer is working harder than it should and potentially creating a fire hazard.
You can clean the lint trap and maybe the first few feet of ductwork, but most homeowners can’t reach the entire vent system effectively. Store-bought cleaning kits don’t have the power to remove compacted lint from long vent runs. Plus, you need to clean from both the inside connection and the exterior termination to do it right. Professional equipment can actually pull out the embedded lint that causes fires, not just push it around or pack it down tighter.
Professional dryer vent cleaning typically costs between $100-200 depending on your vent length, accessibility, and how much buildup we find. That’s a small investment compared to the thousands you’d save on energy bills over time, not to mention avoiding potential fire damage. Most homeowners find the service pays for itself within the first year through improved efficiency. We provide upfront pricing so you know exactly what you’re paying before we start work.
Most dryer vent cleaning jobs take 1-2 hours depending on your home’s layout and vent condition. Simple, short runs might be done in under an hour, while longer vents with multiple bends or heavy buildup can take longer. We don’t rush the job – proper cleaning means taking time to reach every section of your vent system. You can use your dryer immediately after we finish and test the system.
Yes, clean dryer vents significantly reduce energy consumption because your dryer doesn’t have to work as hard to move air. When vents are clogged, your dryer runs longer cycles and uses more electricity or gas to dry the same load. Most customers notice their clothes dry faster in single cycles instead of needing two or three runs. Over a year, the energy savings often cover the cost of professional cleaning, especially with California’s high utility rates.
