Dryer Vent Cleaning and Its Value for Homeowners in Scottsdale, AZ

HVAC Tips & Tricks

A clogged dryer vent in your Scottsdale, AZ, home can cost you in a major way. You can protect your wallet and your health with annual dryer vent cleaning. Here’s why you should make dryer vent cleaning a priority:

Fire Prevention

The U.S. Fire Administration estimates that clothes dryers cause 2,900 house fires every year. Collectively, these fires create a tremendous financial and human toll. Fortunately, you can limit this fire risk with proper maintenance.

A clogged vent can create a fire hazard in two different ways. Lint buildup can heat up and ignite directly. Additionally, a vent clog can cause your dryer to overheat during operation.

Air Quality Considerations

In rare cases, a clogged vent may cause a dangerous carbon monoxide buildup. Normally, this toxic byproduct passes safely to the outside of your home.

An annual vent cleaning can improve your home’s indoor air quality. Maintaining good indoor air quality is particularly important if you have hay fever, asthma or any other respiratory condition.

Cost-Effectiveness

Hire a professional to properly clean your dryer vent from time to time. According to the experts, you should schedule this at least once every year. This investment can save you money in the long run.

A clogged dryer vent can increase your electric bill. These added costs might not seem like much at first. Over time, however, this needless expense can add up to a significant drain on your budget.

Even after investing in a top-of-the-line dryer, you may be dealing with inordinately long drying cycles. This may be a sign that your vent needs clearing.

To live more economically and comfortably, hire pros to clean your home’s vents periodically. For reliable dryer vent cleaning and other types of HVAC maintenance, contact us at REEis Air Conditioning today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is maintenance important for your air conditioning and heating system?

Regular air conditioning maintenance is essential to keep your HVAC system running efficiently, reliably, and cost-effectively. Scheduling REEIS Advanced A/C maintenance help prevent unexpected breakdowns, extend the lifespan of your unit, and improve energy efficiency, leading to lower utility bills.

REEIS Advanced A/C maintenance include: condenser coil cleaning, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical components, and airflow, ensuring your system performs at its best.

Schedule an Advanced A/C tune up with REEIS Air Conditioning to maximize comfort, minimize costs, and protect your investment in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, Mesa, Tempe and surrounding areas.

What is considered an evidence based HVAC recommendation?

Every component of a HVAC recommendation should be supported by evidence. Evidence should come in the form of a reading, a picture or a technician physically showing you the condition or product they are recommending.

Most air conditioning companies, not REEIS, pay their technician with 100% commission. When a technician is paid only if they sell a product or service it can result in a technician recommending a product or service you may not need. It is always recommended that you request the technician provide you the evidence of the recommendation.

Do air conditioning system have parts which wear out?

Yes. Several air conditioning parts are wear out parts. Just like any car, there are several components which should be replaced as they are beyond their useful life. If you neglect the worn part replacement, larger, more expense repairs may result.

How long does a heating and air conditioning system typically last?

In our Phoenix's extreme climate, air conditioning systems typically have a 10 to 12 year lifespan. Well maintained systems can last significantly longer.

How often should I replace my air conditioning system's filters?

In Phoenix's heavy air conditioning use, most systems require filter changes a minimum of 30 days. Larger format filter such as the REEIS Performance Filters can last as long as 6 months.

If you do not change your filters regularly, you will restrict air flow and allow dirt to infiltrate your HVAC system. Dirt is the enemy of your heating and air conditioning system. If interior components get dirty, the performance of the system is significantly impacted. Interior components such as coils and blower wheels are expensive to clean.
