Dryer vent cleaning helps clothes dryers operate efficiently, saving energy while eliminating a potential fire hazard. If you have a gas dryer with inadequate ventilation, then you also have a possible carbon monoxide threat. Here are some additional winter safety tips:
Keep ice and snow cleared away from all vents on the outside of your home, on the ground and the roof. It is important to keep dryer vents and furnace vents clear so toxic fumes and gas by-products can be released from your home.
Be careful with space heaters. Keep combustibles away from the heater. Do not use kerosene heaters as a supplementary heat source in your home. This is a safety hazard and a carbon monoxide threat.
Check smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors; make sure all have fresh batteries. Keep a working fire extinguisher in your home.
Properly maintain your fireplace and dispose of ashes with care.
Thousands of dryer fires occur each year; failure to clean dryer vents is the leading cause. Dryer vent cleaning prevents fires, conserves energy, extends dryer life and reduces the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning.
There are more fires and carbon monoxide accidents during the winter months. When temperatures are below freezing, the house is closed up; therefore, carbon monoxide levels can increase more quickly.
