Dryer Vent Cleaning Process Hood

Here's Exactly What We Do

We start by disconnecting your dryer and inspecting the entire vent system from inside your home to the exterior vent. This shows us exactly where lint has accumulated and identifies any blockages or damage.

Next, we use professional-grade equipment to remove all lint, debris, and buildup from the ductwork. We clean from both ends of the system to ensure complete removal, not just surface cleaning.

Finally, we reconnect everything, test your dryer’s airflow, and show you the difference. You’ll see the lint we removed and feel the improved airflow immediately. Most customers notice their next load dries significantly faster.

Most Hood homeowners need dryer vent cleaning every 12-18 months, but it depends on usage and local conditions. If you do several loads per week or notice longer drying times, annual cleaning makes sense. Homes with shorter vent runs might go longer, while those with longer, more complex ductwork may need cleaning more frequently. The key indicators are drying time – if clothes aren’t drying in one normal cycle, or if your dryer feels unusually hot, it’s time for cleaning regardless of when you last had service.
The most obvious sign is clothes taking longer to dry – especially if loads that used to dry in one cycle now need two or three. You might also notice your dryer getting very hot during operation, a musty smell on clothes after drying, or lint appearing around the outside vent opening. Some homeowners see their energy bills increase without changing their usage patterns. If your dryer shuts off mid-cycle due to overheating, that’s a clear sign the vent is blocked and needs immediate attention for safety reasons.
Yes, clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of house fires. When lint builds up in the ductwork, it restricts airflow and causes your dryer to overheat. Lint is highly flammable, and the combination of heat and accumulated lint creates serious fire risk. The U.S. Fire Administration reports thousands of dryer fires annually, with failure to clean being the leading cause. Regular professional cleaning removes this fire hazard completely. It’s not just about efficiency – it’s about keeping your Hood home and family safe from preventable fires.
Most dryer vent cleaning jobs in Hood take 45 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on the length of your ductwork and how much buildup we find. Simple, straight runs to an exterior wall are quicker, while longer runs with turns take more time. We don’t rush the job – thorough cleaning means accessing the entire system and ensuring all lint and debris is removed. You’ll be able to use your dryer immediately after we finish and reconnect everything. We test the system before we leave to make sure everything is working properly.
Cleaning your lint trap only catches lint before it enters the ductwork, but plenty still gets through and accumulates in the vent system over time. Professional cleaning addresses the lint that builds up in the actual ductwork between your dryer and the outside vent. Even with regular lint trap cleaning, this buildup is inevitable and can’t be reached with household tools. We use specialized equipment to clean the entire vent run, removing lint that’s been accumulating for months or years. Think of lint trap cleaning as daily maintenance, and professional vent cleaning as deep maintenance.
Yes, because your dryer won’t have to work as hard or run as long. When vents are clogged, your dryer uses more energy trying to push air through the blockage, and clothes take multiple cycles to dry completely. Clean vents allow proper airflow, so your dryer operates efficiently and clothes dry in normal cycle times. Most Hood customers see immediate improvement in drying performance, which translates to lower energy usage. The exact savings depend on how blocked your vent was and how often you use your dryer, but reduced cycle times mean reduced energy consumption every time you do laundry.
