Plainfield Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard Observes Fire Prevention Month in October

The Wizard is increasing his efforts to promote public awareness about dryer fire prevention and energy savings through proper dryer installation and maintenance

Plainfield, IN – The Plainfield Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard says cleaning dryer vents is the number one way to eliminate a fire hazard and improve dryer performance. More than 17,000 dryer fires are reported each year with most of them caused by failure to clean dryer vents.

The history of National Fire Prevention Month, observed in October, goes back to the Great Chicago Fire which occurred October 9, 1871. Such disasters often lead to campaigns that promote public awareness on prevention and safety. Dryer Vent Wizard is a member of the National fire Protection Association (NFPA) which is a leading authority on fire safety.

"Don't Let your dryer start a fire; keep your home safe and sound," is Dryer Vent Wizard's marketing campaign. Dryer vent cleaning and professional dryer vent installation will reduce the risk of dryer fires while promoting maximum dryer performance.

Glen Mayfield, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.dryerventcleaningplainfieldin.com/) is concerned about people who think it is normal for an older dryer to take more than one cycle to dry a load of clothing. Many are unaware that this is a warning sign of a potential fire hazard.

During this month, consumers are encouraged to visit the Wizard's website for more information about dryer maintenance, dryer vent cleaning and warning signs to watch out for. The Wizard wants all residents to become informed of the dangers that could be lurking in their laundry room.

Dryer Vent Wizard, Get the Lint Out is a member of the National Fire Protection Association and the largest chain of dryer vent cleaning, repair, replacement and alteration specialists in the U.S. with 60 franchisees in major markets. Glen Mayfield serves the Central Indiana area, Indianapolis, Westfield, Plainfield and surrounding neighborhoods. Visit http://www.dryerventcleaningplainfield.com/ to learn more.

Carmel Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard Visits the Appliance Doctor on WAAM Talk 1600

Joe Gagnon, active consumer advocate and appliance repair guru discusses dryer fire prevention with the Wizard

Carmel IN – The local Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard was recently interviewed by Joe Gagnon, the Appliance Doctor on WAAM Talk 1600. Joe Gagnon is an active consumer advocate and appliance repair guru with over 20 year's experience. He discussed dryer fire prevention with Glen Mayfield, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard.

Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.indianapolisdryerductcleaning.com/) specializes in dryer vent inspection, dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation service while educating consumers about dryer maintenance to prevent fires and save energy.

In an effort to increase public awareness to prevent dryer fires, Mayfield explains how important proper dryer maintenance is. The number one problem he addresses is increased drying time which is typically the first indicator that there is a venting problem. Dryer vent cleaning is usually the solution to speed up drying time and improve overall dryer performance.

Glen told a true story from the field as he detailed one occasion where a customer had a tin foil vent that had come loose and deposited lint above the ceiling. There was also an exposed wire nearby that generated a spark and ignited the lint. It was very lucky the Wizard was there to put out the fire and call the fire department to make sure the home was safe. Once he got the "okay" he was able to replace the faulty dryer vent system and get the lint out!

Glen Mayfield explains to all his customers that flexible foil or vinyl dryer ducts are not designed for the extreme heat produced by a clothes dryer. These venting kits sold in local hardware stores are fine for a bathroom exhaust fan, but should not be used for the dryer (even if the package indicates different). Dryer Vent Wizard only installs metal dryer vent systems that meet current safety codes.

Wizards across the US work to educate customers about dryer fire prevention and energy savings while performing an important home service. Professional dryer vent installation and regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning by the Wizard makes dryers safer and greener. Glen Mayfield serves the Central Indiana area, Indianapolis, Carmel, Zionsville, Westfield and surrounding cities and communities. Visit http://www.dryerventcleaningcarmelindiana.com/ to learn more.

Indianapolis Dryer Vent Repair Wizard Extinguishes Dryer Fire During Inspection

A small spark from an exposed wire completes the recipe for disaster when broken dryer duct dumps flammable lint into false ceiling

Indianapolis, IN – The Indianapolis Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard showed up at the customer's home just in time to put out a dryer lint fire! During a dryer vent inspection he noticed that there was no air coming out of one of the lower level dryer vents. The dryer vent repair technician knew there was a serious problem.

Glen Mayfield, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.dryerventcleaningindianapolis.org/) finds a problem with most dryer vent system inspections. Dryer Vent Wizard specializes in commercial and residential dryer vent cleaning, dryer vent repair and new dryer vent installation.

When Glen looked up into the drop ceiling, he discovered the problem. A break in the dryer vent line was depositing lint into the space rather than sending it out through the vent. Dryer vent repair would be necessary to replace the flexible foil venting with a rigid metal elbow.

Though failure to clean dryer vents is the major cause of dryer fires, faulty dryer vents can also be hazardous. Dryer vent repair and new dryer vent installation by a qualified dryer exhaust technician will ensure dryer safety.

While installing the new code compliant rigid dryer vent system Mayfield noticed an exposed wire in the ceiling had created a spark and caught the lint on fire! Flames were shooting across the false ceiling and were spreading rapidly. He quickly called the fire department and temporarily put out the fire. Firefighters arrived to finish the job and prevent the flames from reaching the living area of the home.

The customer thanked the Wizard for saving their home. They were most relieved because the fire occurred very close to their children's play area. If the fire had started at any other time it may have been a total loss for the family.

Professional dryer vent cleaning and new dryer vent installation by the Wizard saved the customer's home and made their dryer safer and more energy efficient. The customer agreed to have a complete inspection and cleaning performed every 6 months to be safe.

Education is a vital part of the Wizard's service and this was a great day for Glen Mayfield who gained a loyal customer while making another dryer in his neighborhood safer and greener. Wizards across the nation work hard to raise public awareness about the importance of dryer vent cleaning and professional dryer vent installation.
