Annual dryer vent cleaning will reduce the amount of time it takes to dry a load. A dryer with a blocked vent can take 3 to 4 times as long to dry costing upwards of $3.00 per load compared to $.75. If your dryer is unable to let the hot air escape properly it will produce an unsafe amount of heat.
Lint is as much a part of doing laundry as soap and water, but firefighters say lint poses a serious danger to our homes. It's a fact of life, lint. The Lint Lizard is a vacuum attachment designed for getting at those hard to reach places in your dryer. Consisting of a clear flexible plastic tube attached to a thicker solid plastic tube shaped to fit most vacuums.
This is the method of choice for cleaning most dryer vents. The brush travels the entire distance of the vent releasing lint from inside the exhaust pipe. A device used to measure airflow. At Ventsmart we always take a reading of the airflow both before and after the dryer vent cleaning. A flexible foil transition has the possibility of being crushed between the wall and the dryer. Almost all dryer have specific warnings against this type of transition. Sears named in dryer vent lawsuit.

Chris was very good about being on time and cleaning my dryers vent system. While he was doing what he had to do he recommend that the tube that connects the dryer with the vent system be replaced. He said the tube in place will eventually have to be replaced. So now I have a Foil vent connection tube to the roof vent and pleased with with the service over all.

We have used VentSmart a number of times. They always give fast, exceptional service, and they are very reasonably priced. This most recent visit, they saved me from having to buy a new dryer. They removed a screen covering our dryer vent on the roof, which was placed there by a contractor. The screen was totally blocked from lint, and they explained this screen covering is against code and is a potential fire hazard.

My dryer was doing a lousy job of drying my clothes, so I called VentSmart. Chris came out, had a look, and diagnosed and fixed a venting issue within 30 minutes! I'm not easily impressed, but Chris really impressed me with his knowledge and professionalism. I highly recommend VentSmart.

I left a message to request service on a Friday evening and promptly received a callback the next morning from Wayne to set up an appointment for service. Our Technician, Chris, was scheduled for Monday at 9:30am. Chris arrived on time and was personable, professional & efficient and had our Dryer Vent cleaned out in a flash! I’d definitely recommend VentSmart Dryer Vent Cleaning to everyone!

If you are looking for a company to clean your dryer vent, call VentSmart. I had a different company come out a few years ago and it doesn't compare to the work that VentSmart did. Scheduling was easy and very pleasant. Chris came out and did a fantastic job. He was so pleasant and cleaned the dryer vent inside and on the roof. He showed me all the link that he collected. Chris was awesome! I would have given this company more than five stars if I could.

Incredible service at a great rate and very timely. Wayne was super responsive and very reasonable. He not only did the job on time and very well, he actually did it early and charged less than everyone else! He was flexible and able to work with my schedule. Definitely recommend and will use again. Thanks!

Thank you VentSmart! Amazing service! Recently purchased a new washer and Dryer for my parents and wanted to ensure that the dryer Vent line was clean. After looking at the exhaust for the Vent line Chris advised us that we may need to do some modifications in order to prevent AC issues. (Because the Vent exhaust was blowing right into the AC unit). The fact that he took time to explain to me and my parents this tip was everything to me! If i could give them 10 stars I would. Chris is the Best!

Chris is the best.very friendly and makes you laugh! Thanks again!

I was so impressed by this company and Chris was the best. He carefully explained all he was doing, and walked me through the entire cleaning process. I recently moved in to my home, and we discovered that the vent hadn't been cleaned in probably YEARS! I could not believe what came out of the vent...no wonder it took forever to dry a load of clothes. Chris never passed judgement, and was glad that he helped me avoid a potential fire hazard. I will definitely have him back out next year to keep my vent squeaky clean!

We bought a house and moved in the week before Thanksgiving. Thought that was going to be the rough part. We had washer issues first. Once I was able to get the load out of the washer, I put in the dryer. The "clean vent" light came on; as well as, the "poor circulation" light. We were told by our inspector that we would need to clean the dryer vent in the first year.

He was right. I called and left a message. Got a call back the next day and they were able to come out during my lunch, same day, so I would not miss any time. Chris was our technician and was on time, professional and thorough. He showed me the lint ball that was clogging everything up. He also showed me that the techs who installed our dryer initially, used the wrong connector and it is a fire hazard. Installed the new one, cleaned everything out and was gone with a little conversation! I got back to work in enough time! Thanks Chris! A great piece of mind knowing that the dryer is all good!

We've used Ventsmart for the past two years. This year we had Chris, and he was able to determine and fix a fire hazard we had going on with our dryer. Cleaned everything out, and the dryer was no longer leaving damp clothes! Everyone has been very efficient and personable. Fantastic service!

Its been a while since Ive had my dryer vent cleaned. My dryer wasnt at peak performance. I called the company I have used in the past only to find they have raised their rate considerably for this service. I surfed the web and called Ventsmart. The tech came out as scheduled, with a phone call when in route. He completed the job timely. He was very helpful and the price was much better than the competitor. I will use this company again when my vent needs to be reserviced.

Chris called and confirmed appointment and showed up as scheduled. He did a very professional and thorough job. My vents were dangerously clogged from lint to the extent of being a fire hazard. Will use again and highly recommend.

They have dryer vent cleaning down to a science. My neighbor handed me a card and told me to get my dryer vent cleaned so my house didn't burn down. Ok, she might have been more diplomatic than that, but that was the takeaway. Since she recently had her dryer vent's cleaned she had a $7 off card to give me. I learned at my appointment that if we schedule for the same time we could each get $10 off our service.

She is now my dryer vent cleaning buddy. It's $69 if the vent goes to the side of the house or $89 if it goes off the roof. My service guy told me they no longer do two story houses because of the danger of falling off the roof. Totally understandable. Our vent was on the roof so it was $89 and solidified my belief that we need a company to do this, my husband would definitely fall off that roof.

They gave us an hour and a half window that they would show up. On the phone the guy even said, oh we definitely show up during that time. I didn't doubt him, but I have had tons of contractors that don't come when they say they do, so I appreciate that they take this seriously. I also love that they have specific people handling the scheduling.

No worry playing phone tag here. Our window was between 12 and 1:30 p.m. The guy called to give me a 20 minute heads up and showed up about 12:40 p.m. He was super nice and efficient. It didn't deter him at all to have a 10 month old baby staring at him while he did everything. He was in and out in less than an hour. Now I don't have to worry about my house burning down because of our dryer. I'll see him next year.

Chris was patient, personable and professional! He answered questions, cleaned up the guck causing the clogged vent and didn't mind my barking dogs! I've already marked my cal. for a vent cleaning in a year from now. Thanks, VentSmart! Oh, and reasonable price!

I moved into an older home:dryer belonged to prior owner--left behind. I noticed quickly things were taking a LONG time to dry, dryer was hot to touch, etc. I have never yet owned a home where the dryer vented onto the roof-but have read a lot of horror stories. I contacted VentSmart based on excellent reviews and was not disappointed!(figured this needed to be done anyway--and will see dryer performance afterwards)Chris called-showed up right on time--and went straight to work:roofers had left the cover off---swept debris into the vent:including shingle pieces and nails. Chris also installed a rigid metal shorter vent hose and informed me a LOT about what I never knew---very helpful.

The pricing was as stated over the phone--Chris was friendly, cheerful, knowledgeable and professional. About 1 hour's time-start to finish. Impressive--and I highly recommend! I will use them again.

I called them and they had appointments available as quick as the next day. Chris came out to our house and to my surprise he was ON TIME. He was very professional and knowledgeable, I highly recommend this company. They up front with pricing and the quote they gave me over the phone was exactly what they charged.

Just had dryer go out and had to get a new one. The new one continued to not dry so I thought we should check out the vent. Found Ventsmart on yelp and they lived up to the 5 star rating. Very quick in responding and had the technician, Chris, in the area the same day. Chris was great and pulled all sorts of lint from my roof vent and even more when he cleaned from the inside.

He also noticed that we had a potential fire hazard with the ventand took care of that at a very low cost. Very pleased with the service that Chris provided and will make Ventsmart services an annual requirement!

Great. Chris was pleasant, efficient and cleaned our dryer vent and tube. He called before to confirm he was on his way, and arrived on time. He explained some items about keeping the dryer vent and screen clean; and how to read the lint on the screen to indicate cleaning is needed. He also cut the tube to the correct length to insure unrestricted air flow. We will definitely use VentSmart again.

I have used Vent Smart for over eight years. Today I needed them because I had the classic signs of a dangerously clogged vent. The dryer became very hot to the touch, the laundry room was humid and the clothes were taking nearly two hours to dry. I called first thing this morning for an appointment and asked if they could come as soon as possible which they did. Chris went up on the roof and discovered that the roofers left the drier vent covered. It was a quick fix but Chris did a thorough complete job anyhow.

Called in and spoke to Wayne to schedule another dryer vent clean for townhouse in Tarpon Springs, FL. I was able to get appt. for the tenant very next morning. Chris came out and cleaned vent and found 3 id's and a credit card in the transition. Turns out it was in fact the landlords credit cards from 2013. 2 tenants ago. We make every effort to clean vents regularly stressing the importance to the owner. Chris returned cards and id's so I could send to Landlord.

Just one word: Amazing! I called them this morning spoke with Wayne. I explained my situation and he was able to scheduled me this afternoon. We purchased a foreclosed home that was abandoned for 6+ years. We started using our fairly new dryer with no problems. But the last week the room was always humid and hot. The clothes were always wet after hours in the dryer and the dryer itself was getting hot.

With fear of a fire hazard, my husband advice me to stop trying to clean and fix myself and get professional help. Well, I'm so glad we did. I was right about something weird going on. Apparently, our home inspector failed to check the dryer vent that was clogged up by an old net (against code) and decades of lint (I guessed the old owners never cleaned it). Anyways, in less than one hour, Mike had the dryer connection replaced and our dryer vent cleaned.

I just finished my first trial and the dryer worked like a champion! No humidity in the laundry room, the dryer didn't get hot and the laundry was completely dried before the end of the cycle. If I can give you one advice: If you just bough/ move to a new home, call them! I didn't realize the situation was as bad as it was. I bet we'll be saving in our electrical bill as well.

Great service. Chris came over a little early and had no problem waiting for me. Once we got there he immediately got to work explaining what he was going to do and what he was going to check for at every step. He also educated me on the risks of poor vent connections and the fire hazard they can pose. In my case I was getting water accumulating in the dryer hose. Chris very promptly climbed the roof and found a screen that was plugged in the vent. He then cleaned the pipe and the floor and even the dryer. Great job. He was very courteous, friendly and professional. Would highly recommend the company and Chris.

I was at the point that I was sure we just needed a new dryer. My wife thought I was just not very talented at cleaning the vents. She called VentSmart. They came out the next day. Quick, efficient and friendly with no up-sale pitches that usually come along with services like this. Mike even shortened the tubing that runs from the dryer to the wall and gave us more space in our laundry room (that is approximately the size of a #2 pencil) which was super helpful. Dryer now works like new. Oh, he also found zero (0) cobras in or under the dryer, so that's good news.

After seeing how many quality reviews there were for this company I decided to give them a call to clean my town home dryer vent. It was easy to making appointment without having to wait days for the service. Rick came out on time, cleaned the vent thoroughly including going up on the roof of the two-story building and gave me a measurement of the air flow. My wife is thrilled because our dryer now works so much better. I would definitely recommend Rick coming out to clean your dryer vent. Clean cut, on time and good work.

I called on a Monday and they were out to my house on Wednesday. They were friendly and on time and I don't even think it took an hour. The invoice was exactly as quoted. I was very happy with this service. You really should have this done yearly. It doesn't even cost $100. A lot less than a fire would cost you. Go on Facebook and write "Lower my power bill" on their wall. You will save $6.
