Indoor Air Quality Services Inc. (dba IAQ Services) performs dryer vent cleaning and has the necessary equipment to inspect the vent to identify any obstructions, disconnections, or damage. 

The dryer vent cleaning process includes detaching the dryer vent to adequately run brushes to clean and blow out any lint and debris. Once the cleaning process is completed, our team properly reassembles the dryer vent. This approach ensures a thorough cleaning to maintain the optimal function and safety of the dryer vent system. 

Dryer vent cleaning is essential for several key reasons. 

• It greatly reduces the risk of fire, as lint accumulation in dryer vents is a known fire hazard. 

• It enhances dryer efficiency, leading to energy savings and shorter drying times. 

• It extends the lifespan of the appliance through regular maintenance.

• It helps prevent mold growth in the dryer vents in humid climates, such as New Orleans. 

Preventing mold growth and keeping the dryer vent free of animal feces or nesting contributes to a healthier indoor environment by reducing potential allergens and irritants. 

Additionally, removing lint and debris improves indoor air quality, making it healthier for residents. Regularly cleaning dryer vents is a critical aspect of household maintenance, ensuring both safety and operational efficiency.

The frequency of dryer vent cleaning can depend on various factors, such as usage frequency or patterns, and the specific environment. Generally, it's recommended to have the dryer vents cleaned at least once every 1 - 3 years. However, in areas with higher humidity levels, like New Orleans, or households where the dryer is used more frequently, cleaning the vent each year may be advisable. 

You might realize you need a dryer duct cleaning when your appliance's digital screen provides a warning or the dryer stops running, as a safety feature. 

If there are odd smells when your dryer is running, it could indicate the presence of buildup in the dryer vent. Noticing lint or particles around the dryer vent areas is another clear sign. After any pest infestations in your dryer vent, a cleaning is necessary. 

Regular inspections can help determine if additional cleanings are necessary. This schedule ensures that the vents remain free from excessive lint buildup, maintaining efficiency and safety.
