"Honestly, I really wish I could give a better review. Most of the people we have worked with at Dalton have been very polite and they always come out to work on our systems. They installed our grandmothers system so we decided to go with them as well. Unfortunately we paid for a new heat pump system (A/C/Furnace Combo) and since it's been installed they've had to come out 5 or 6 times now. the first four times were because settings were improperly configured on the circuit board of the furnace unit. Each time they came out they had different techs with them saying different things. First the furnace wasn't adequately cooling the house and the noise coming from it was really obnoxious. So we had issues with cooling, now we go to test the furnace to make sure we have heat for the cold nights that are coming and we have no heat. The breaker outside had to be replaced, the unit won't pull gas. It's just been a mess. One of the technicians straight up gaslit us insisting that the sound our furnace was making was "normal as far as I can tell" and tried refusing to come service it, saying he wanted to get a factory representative, but then when he showed up he agreed it was too loud, did a little research and fixed the problem (without the factory rep). Like come on guys. We spent like almost 15 grand with you and this is how we get treated? We just want our stuff to work. Customer service is not what this review is based on, we have a 15 thousand dollar piece of metal that doesn't function properly and, unfortunately, that is a bigger deal to me than a rude technician. It has been months since this was installed, it needs to be remedied I'm getting sick of this. Update: they replaced the furnace completely. As of tonight it is still not functioning as advertised. Don’t buy a heat pump system here, it’s not worth the trouble. I also really like how the owner responds to all these nice reviews but hasn't had anything to say about the horrible experience we've had. Real cool."

Dryer Vent Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The main factor to a full lint trap is what you are drying. Clothing or textiles made of heavy natural materials, like wool sweaters or cotton towels, generally create more lint than synthetic fibers. If you wash the same type of clothes all the time and suddenly start to notice more lint, that may be a sign that your dryer vent is getting clogged and you need to call in a pro for a professional cleaning. 

You can clean a dryer vent yourself by unplugging the dryer from your wall outlet, removing your vent pipe from your dryer, removing debris from the pipe and dryer area, and looking at the exterior vent exit for any debris or blockages. 

If you're unfamiliar with how vents work, call in a pro for an annual vent cleaning and inspection and for help with how to clean a dryer vent.

You should not put boric acid into your home’s air vents. While sprinkling boric acid in roach-prone areas is an effective way to get rid of them, it’s not safe to introduce those chemicals into your home’s air system. Instead, put boric acid or diatomaceous earth in a spot that roaches may walk through, infesting them and the rest of the infestation.

You should clear your dryer lint trap after every cycle, but a deeper clean is needing only one a year. Failure to clear your lint trap regularly results in lint building up over time, making it harder to clean and more expensive.

There are a few things you can look out for that indicate it’s time to clean your dryer vent, including the following:

  • It has been a year or more since the last professional cleaning.

  • Your clothes are taking longer to dry than usual.

  • Your clothes smell musty or burnt when they come out of the dryer.

  • You see lint building up around the outside dryer vent cap.

  • Your laundry room is unusually hot.

  • Your dryer is unusually hot to the touch during operation.

  • You notice a kink in or damage to the vent.
