Exterior Dryer Vent Cleaning
Exterior dryer vent cleaning removes built-up lint and debris from the outside vent where your dryer exhausts air. Over time, lint collects at the vent hood, restricting airflow and forcing the dryer to work harder. Regular exterior vent cleaning improves airflow, helps dryers run more efficiently, and reduces the risk of lint-related issues. This service is especially important for homes and commercial multi-unit properties with long vent runs, roof-mounted vents, or high dryer usage. Keeping the exterior vent clear supports proper dryer performance and helps prevent unnecessary wear on the appliance.
