Dryer Vent Wizard of Greater Chicago
About us
We are certified and veteran owned. We perform at every home a 10-point inspection on everything to do with dryer vents. This includes readings on the dryer and vent line to determine the efficiency of the entire vent system. During the evaluation process many things are considered such as: type of material used during the original installation; the design of the system and whether it allows optimal efficiency; checks are also made during evaluation to look for screws in the system which is not recommended; length of the vent line is also evaluated; review of the entire laundry area by inspecting the dryer connection to the wall, attic connections, roof vents where necessary and washer hoses for brittleness. We are a three technician company-all family owned and we NEVER use sub-contractors. We guarantee all our work no matter how long ago you used our services. All three of us are highly trained and the owner is C-DET certified #419 through CSIA expiring 12/31/2012. The ten-point diagnostic inspection generally runs $39.00. Cleaning, installation and repairs vary in price according to amount of work needed. $10 off for all Angie's List members. Our territory is zip code driven and extends from Lake Michigan (south of I-290) west to St. Charles; south to Naperville (Will County line); and north to Mundelein (west of I-94). Our goal is to make everyone's dryer vent system safe from any potential fire. Additional contact name - Joyce Diesman.

"Thank you [Member Name Removed], for this great review. We were happy to be able to work around your schedule to get your dryer vent working optimally again! As always, we treat every home as if it were our own. Please call us anytime for any dryer vent concerns you may have."
"Thank you for this great review. The job there was certainly interesting and we're glad we could figure it out and correct it. It's wonderful to work with people who want their vent system as safe as it can be; it was a pleasure meeting you and your wife."
There are a couple of other things I appreciated about Manny's service: (1) He gave a helpful tip on how to test my dryer's effectiveness every three to six months so that I wouldn't have to call him again unless another cleaning was absolutely necessary. (2) He noticed we use fabric softener sheets, so he gave me another tip on washing my dryer's lint trap. (This was eye-opening! I had no idea that using these dryer sheets can cause an invisible film to build up in the trap, making it easier for lint to build up in the appliance itself rather than going through the vent as it should.)
The work took about an hour from start to finish. It has now been more than two weeks since Manny came by. Our dryer purrs like a kitten, and it works SO MUCH faster now. We very much appreciated Manny's friendly, personable approach, and the bottom line is he got the job done at a reasonable price. We were very happy to give Dryer Vent Wizard our business, and we have no hesitation recommending them to anyone who needs to have their dryer vents inspected and cleaned (or as in our case, discovered!). They will be our "go to" company should any future needs arise.
