Dryer Vent Cleaning Vancouver - Why Your Home Needs It
When it comes to dryer vent cleaning in Vancouver, most homeowners don’t realize the danger lurking in their laundry room. That lint you pull from your dryer screen? It’s just the tip of the iceberg.
As certified technicians with over 20 years of experience cleaning dryer vents across Vancouver and the Lower Mainland, we’ve seen firsthand what builds up inside those vents – and it’s scary.
The Facts:
- Clogged dryer vents cause 1/3 of all dryer fires (NFPA)
- Average Vancouver home has 15-25 feet of venting full of hidden lint
- Proper cleaning saves $20-30/month on energy bills
- Regular maintenance extends dryer life by 5+ years

Why Vancouver Homes Are High Risk
Local challenges that make regular cleaning essential:
- Long Condo Vents – Many Vancouver condos have 30+ foot runs with multiple bends
- Wet Climate – More laundry = more lint buildup year-round
- Older Home Renovations – Creative vent routing creates lint traps
- High-Rise Complexities – Shared systems need coordinated maintenance
- Basement Suites – Double the dryers, double the risk
Real Costs of a Clogged Vent
What you’re losing every month:
- $20-30 extra on BC Hydro bills
- 2-3x longer drying times
- Faster clothing wear and damage
- Years off your dryer’s lifespan
- Fire risk that insurance may not cover
One professional cleaning pays for itself in energy savings alone.
Professional vs DIY - The Truth
Why DIY kits fail:
- Only reach 4 feet (Vancouver homes average 15-25 feet)
- No vacuum extraction (just moves lint around)
- Can’t identify disconnected or damaged vents
- Risk damaging gas connections
- Miss birds nests, toys, and other blockages
We’ve fixed hundreds of DIY attempts gone wrong. Do it right the first time.
