Home dryer fires cause $35 million in property loss and can even cause injury or death.

Most dryer fires occur due to either electrical issues or lint trapped in the lint trap/filer also overloading the dryer with wet clothing.

To reduce the risk of these fires happening in your home, SERVPRO of Plano can help clean dryer vents and ducts that may have lint buildup.

Other tips for keeping your dryer vents clean from the National Fire Protection Agency include cleaning the lint filter before and after each load of laundry and making sure the outdoor vent flap will open and is not restricted by snow, a bird’s nest or other potential obstacles.

It is recommended to check your outside vent flap once a month or once every other month.
