Professionally cleaned dryer vents are necessary for ensuring that dryers are functioning properly. Doing so will help reduce the risk of a dryer fire. As lint collects in the dryer vent system, the dryer can overheat, throw a spark, and cause a fire. It's that simple. Leading appliance manufacturers recommend having your dryer vent inspected and cleaned by a professional once a year.
