Dryer vent cleaning is the best way to prevent dryer fires and reduce energy consumption. The only better way to do this is by line-drying all laundry, but who does that? There really is no reason to give up using the automatic clothes dryer. I’m just trying to make a very important point…dryer vent cleaning promotes maximum dryer efficiency while eliminating a fire hazard. Failure to clean dryer vents is the number one cause of dryer fires. Poorly vented clothes dryers can cost up to an additional $300 per year in utility bills.
The right to dry movement has been growing across the US to promote the right to use a clothes line to save energy. Some homeowner’s associations have banned the use of clotheslines, saying they’re unsightly. People in well-to-do communities feel that clotheslines indicate poverty.
Dryer vent cleaning companies make their money cleaning, repairing and installing dryer vents, so why would they support right to dry?
Dryer Vent Wizard supports the use of clothes lines and drying racks to save energy and reduce wear and tear on your clothing. They know that people are not going to give up their clothes dryers altogether. Dryer Vent Wizard promotes green practices and dryer fire safety by educating their customers on the importance of proper dryer vent installation and maintenance.
Clothes dryers use 10 – 15 percent of the domestic energy consumed in the U.S. To save money, people have been known to hang laundry outside even during cooler weather conditions. The wind and breeze play a larger role than the warm sun in drying laundry.
Here are some benefits of line-drying your laundry:
Saves money by reducing energy
Extends the life of your clothing
Makes clothes smell better, naturally
Exercise outside while doing household chores
Bleach and disinfect naturally, with sunlight
Sunlight and fresh air are healthy
Drying racks improve humidity in dry weather conditions
Try line drying some of your laundry, like sheets and towels. You might find that you enjoy the activity and the energy savings. Dryer Vent Wizard understands the convenience of clothes dryers and they don’t expect you to get rid of yours. Just cut down on the number of loads you pay to dry; solar drying is free.
