Is your dryer's transition hose up to code?

The transition hose is the vent that connects the back of your dryer to the wall behind your dryer.  The transition hose is typically some sort of a slinky type hose that will flex.  A transition hose that is within code will be made of metal, typically aluminum.  If your transition hose is made of plastic, nylon, or some other non-metal, then your transition hose may not be up to code, and is at risk of contributing to a dryer fire.  Some aluminum transition hoses have too much flex, which can lead to the hose folding up and blocking air flow.

Vent-tastic carries and installs a brand of transition hose that is crush resistant and fire resistant.  Vent-tastic dryer vent cleaning includes a free inspection of your transition hose and will recommend replacement if required.

Cold weather is around the corner.  As the weather chills our clothing selection becomes thicker and heavier.  These heavier clothes hold more water going into the dryer than do the typical lighter weight clothes that we wear during the summer.  What this means for you is that your dryer cycles will take longer to get your clothes dry.  A clean dryer vent at the beginning of the cold weather season can help shorten your drying cycles.   And as we all know, shorter dryer cycles mean less electricity required, and a lower power bill at the end of the month.

Dryer Vent Cleaning saves time, save money, and saves lives.
