Dryer lint is the most common source of dryer fire ignition. Approximately 17,500 reported dryer fires occur yearly, resulting in approximately 34 deaths, 430 injuries, and more than $209 million in property damages. Lack of cleaning, improper vent materials, or poor dryer vent installation can cause excess lint build-up, making dryer vent inspections extremely important. Leading appliance manufacturers recommend once a year of professional inspection and cleaning of dryer vents to remove lint build-up and ensure proper airflow.​​​​​​

Our experienced and professional technicians know that each household is unique, as is the dryer vent system. Dryer vents should be routinely inspected to ensure secure joint connections, identify any excess lint build-up, and help prevent fires by removing potential hazards. Our thorough inspections also allow Dryer Vent Superheroes to determine the extent of any dryer vent issues and provide the best solutions for your home or business. We inspect the vent line, lint trap, joint connections, termination point, and washing machine hoses. Following your inspection, you will be provided a written estimate based on the diagnostic inspection, and will walk you through the services needed to keep your home safe.

Why is Dryer Vent Sanitization Important?

​

• Combats Hidden Health Threats: Animal nests in dryer vents can contain harmful bacteria like Histoplasmosis Fungi and Hantavirus. Sanitization helps eliminate these potential health hazards for your Wichita home.

​

• Improves Indoor Air Quality: Mold and mildew growth in dryer vents can contribute to respiratory problems. Regular cleaning and sanitization can help maintain healthy indoor air quality.

​

• Reduces Odors: Bacteria and mold growth can cause unpleasant odors in your laundry room. Sanitization helps eliminate these odors and freshen the air.
