Should dryer vents be straight?

• <div><p>Your dryer vent hose should be as straight as you can possibly get it. A straight vent means less lint buildup in the hose. If the hose has a lot of bends and turns, it’s much easier and much more likely for lint to get stuck along the line, meaning you’ll have to clean it out a lot more often to decrease the risk of a total blockage or a fire. </p></div>

Q: How do you avoid future clogs?

• <div><p>Using less toilet paper is the easiest way to prevent future clogs. Also, avoid flushing sanitary products, thick paper towels, or hair down the toilet. If you&rsquo;ve been using a brick in the tank to reduce the water used to flush the toilet, take it out immediately. Bricks will eventually fall apart and clog your toilet drain. Keeping your toilet lid closed also helps avoid future clogs.</p></div>

Q: Is it normal for a dryer vent to be wet?

• <div><p>If you happen to disassemble your dryer vent and feel the inside of the duct immediately after drying a load of laundry, it will likely feel damp and warm. That&rsquo;s normal, as the vent has just finished moving the humidity and moisture from your laundry to the exterior of your property. However, if your dryer vent has water droplets in it at any time, it&rsquo;s a sign that there&rsquo;s trouble with the machine&rsquo;s ventilation. You should call in a professional right away to get the issue fixed. </p></div>

Q: What signs indicate that a dryer vent needs cleaning?

• <div><p>Signs include longer drying cycles, a burning smell, excess lint behind the dryer, and the vent hood not opening properly.</p></div>

Mason and his crew are great guys! We needed simple mowing and edging work, and they knocked it out in no time! They cleaned up the sidewalks after mowing, and they are more than fair with their pricing.
