Dryer vents are an often-overlooked part of home maintenance. After cleaning your lint filter, it’s easy to assume that there’s no other buildup from running your appliance. However, as our Oklahoma City dryer vent cleaning service has discovered time and time again, dryer vents can build up excessively and cause serious issues like a dryer fire. If your dryer vent runs through your roof it is recommended that it be cleaned every year. State law requires dryer vents to vent to the exterior of the home, not in the garage or attic.
