- Risk of fires. The amount of damaged caused by residential dryer fires annually goes into the millions and can be expected from commercial dryers also. Liability, loss of revenue and business interruption are things many companies cannot afford to experience.
- Energy efficiency. Proper function of equipment can greatly reduce expenses and complete drying cycles in less time.
- Longevity of supplies. You’ll know you are due for a commercial dryer vent cleaning once customers or workers start to complain clothes and dried linens are hot to the touch when they come out of the dryer. This is a sign the dryer must work harder. Imagine the damage that is done to supplies when forced to go to high heat.
