Dryer Vent Wizard Recommends Air Flow Sensors to Prevent Dryer Fires

The Dryer Vent Cleaning Syosset New York Wizard recommends that proper maintenance is the best method for preventing dryer fires.

Employing a regular dryer vent cleaning service would decrease the wear and tear on the dryer and also enhance the performance of the dryer. Customers normally tend to neglect the maintenance of their dryer vents as they are usually out of sight.

Bob Dougherty, owner of the Dryer Vent Wizard in Nassau County, New York is a specialist in dryer vent installation and also in dryer vent cleaning. He educates his customers about the significance and necessity of proper maintenance. He revealed that if a dryer takes over an hour for drying a laundry load, then this indicates the presence of a clogged dryer. This is actually a sign that there is an air flow problem inside which could also prove to be a fire hazard.

A few of his customers have enquired about the air flow sensor, which is a safety tool created for alerting people about the air flow problems in their dryer. The sensor is incorporated by fitting on the dryer vent tube and the hose, which in turn is linked to a digital pressure sensor mounted on the wall. The sensor’s LED lights show the pressure levels and whenever the dryer vent needs cleaning a warning light flashes and the device emits beep sounds.

According to the Dryer Vent Cleaning Syosset New York Wizard, even though the sensor is a step towards the right direction, it is not reliable enough. The dryer vent must be cleaned with or without the presence of this device. The sensor cannot replace responsibility and common sense which is required. Dryer vent cleaning is needed at least once in a year so that the dryer operates both safely and efficiently.
