Dryer vent cleaning isn’t optional — it’s essential. Over time, lint, dust, and heat-exposed debris build up inside the exhaust duct. This clogs airflow, increases dry times, and creates a serious fire risk. In New York City, where many dryers connect to narrow, shared, or extended ducts, the risk is even higher. Long vent runs, wall elbows, rooftop exits, and multi-unit exhaust paths clog faster than standard setups. If your dryer takes too long to dry, gets hot during use, or emits a burning smell, the vent — not the appliance — is usually to blame.
Clogged dryer vents don’t always show up as obvious blockages — but the symptoms are clear if you know what to watch for. These include extended drying cycles, overheating on the exterior of the unit, and a sharp burning smell during use. Lint buildup near the wall vent or flap is another sign. If it’s been over a year since your last vent service, buildup is already reducing airflow and overworking your motor and heating element. Addressing it early extends appliance life and lowers energy costs.
After service, your dryer will run cooler, dry faster, and use less energy. Motor strain is reduced, heating element wear slows down, and the risk of fire drops significantly. This is not the same as cleaning the lint screen — we clean the entire exhaust path, from the machine to the external exit point. For most homes, annual cleaning is recommended. In NYC apartments with long or shared ducts, 6–12 month intervals may be necessary. If your dryer is running hot, slow, or loud — the vent may be the problem, not the appliance.
