Dryer Vent Fire - Salem, Oregon

Dryer vent fires cause millions of dollars in damages every year while being something that most people have the ability to prevent.

Lint builds up over time and restricts hot airflow from escaping the dryer itself. Once airflow is restricted, heat is not able to exit out of the dryer. This causes the dryer itself to become a hot box.

How can you tell if your dryer vent is clogged? Clothes drying time increases. If your clothes are taking twice as long to dry, it is time to check your dyer venting. If you're not comfortable with doing this, then give SERVPRO of Salem West at call at (503) 393-9999 for an inspection and estimate.
