Dryer vent Cleaning Service

We provide inspection and cleaning for the readily accessible portions of the dryer vent system in your home. This is one of our basic services. At Midtown Chimney Sweeps and Dryer Vent Cleaning we use a brush and high-velocity air to remove lint. When your dryer duct vent is cleaned, your vent system flows more easily and your dryer operates more efficiently. Excessive lint buildup occurs slowly and gradually. You don’t realize it is happening. Cleaning out the lint filter isn’t enough to responsibly maintain your dryer.

Residences Should Have Dirty Dryer Vents Cleaned

There are 16,000 reported annual home fires related to laundry center fires in American. Electric dryers are at the heart of the danger of fire due to the high voltage electric element that heats the air to dry the clothes. A hot element combined with fuel such as lint can be a powerful combination! At Midtown Chimney Sweeps and Dryer Vent Cleaning, we use a brush and high velocity air to blast the dryer lint from the vent.

Please call today to learn prices, which vary according to location and time of year.

Flex Hoses for Dryers

A dryer vent fire may be reduced with the use of properly UL Listed and Tested dryer vent flex hose. Numerous flexible dryer hoses may be available at Home Depot and Lowe’s that are not recommended per code. Never use plastic or flexible fabric style hoses. Only use aluminum rated products on your dryer venting system. At Midtown Chimney Sweeps we specialize in preparing your dryer vent for safe operation. We do so by recommending and installing UL Listed made in America Dryer Donnectors by IN-O-Vate Technologies, or other vendors who supply us with high quality aluminum connector hoses.

Wall Vents for Dryers

A dryer vent fire possibility may also be reduced by the proper termination of the dryer vent outside the home. At Midtown Chimney Sweeps we specialize in dryer vent cleaning and inspection, and installing the flapper device on the outside of your house that discharges the dryer exhaust air. An improperly constructed dryer vent termination will close off the air flow, resulting in hotter interior temperatures. At Midtown we use a Made In America product powder coated 22 gauge sheet metal Dryer Wall Ventor another quality product of solid aluminum.

Why Should I Sweep my Dryer Vent?

Dryer vents carry the lint from your clothes to the outside world. Lint is the by-product of heating and tumbling cotton and nylon clothing in a drum style dryer with high velocity air. The more children and pets that one has in the house the dirtier the dryer vent will be. Pet hair is extremely combustible and it is removed from people’s clothing in the clothes drying process and soon collects down the entire length of the dryer vent, setting up a perfect scenario for a dryer vent fire!

Why do Dryer Fires Happen?

When these dryer vents become damaged or dirty they create resistance and increased pressure on the clothes dryer’s internal blower. This increased pressure can result in the steadily rising temperature of the exhaust air which can actually ignite the combustible lint in the vent. The lint begins to burn and spreads through the lightweight aluminum vent pipe and starts a structure fire. Once the vent is compromised and the fire started, the fan blows air on the flames of the dryer vent fire and soon the flames spread very rapidly to the entire laundry room. Dryer vent fires can be prevented by easily and inexpensive annual cleaning.

Why Hire Midtown Chimney to Clean the Vent?

Most homeowners do not have the equipment to clean a dryer vent properly. Our uniformed technicians use the same powerful vacuum equipment for cleaning dryer vents as for cleaning chimneys, fireplaces, and air ducts. Our professionals use high-pressure air and specialized tools to remove the debris from vent runs, crevices, elbows, and bends, cleaning the entire length of the vent from the dryer to the outside of your home.

I would highly recommend Midtown Chimney Sweeps! Both Kurt & Derrick were so knowledgeable! I was impressed by their level of professionalism. They help fix our chimney issues, ensured all the work was done correctly with the parts specific to our fireplace unit. They went the extra mile to obtain the necessary parts and schedule the work to be done as quickly as possible. Thank you so much!

Stephen Rosen

The absolutely the BEST

J Miller

Mike did a fantastic job cleaning and inspecting the stove, was very professional, knowledgeable and helped answer all my questions!

Adam Compton

This is a great company and their service is top notch!

Response from the owner:Thank you for your review of our Chimney and Fireplace services in central Iowa! -Byron and the Midtown Chimney Team

Gene Fish

Thank you Marcus. Great job 👏 Highly recommend!

Erica McBride

We really appreciated the time Marcus took to explain everything. Ours is so old and too far gone to really just clean but he still took the time to explain why, how, and even give cost projection estimates for various options to replace and fix.

Tony Mao

Had a great experience working with Byron and his team. He works a honest business and ensures the work is done right at a fair price. Looking forward to doing business with them again in the future!

Response from the owner:Thank you Tony! I hope the new Vermont Castings Gas stove gives you years of good service! Thank you for working with us on the blower confusion, glad we could get it installed before winter for you and your family in Evergreen, Colorado! -Byron and the Midtown Chimney Team

Eric Shaw

Amazing experience! Byron showed up at 7pm to fix my leaking stove pipe. No other company comes close! Highly recommend!!

Ryan Wolf

Marcus was great every step of the way when it came to rehabbing our home’s chimney.

From the initial inspection/cleaning, explaining the pre-existing damage found during the inspection, answering our many questions, explaining our repair options (with Midtown and with other firms), walking us through the timeline/process/cost for the repair and performing the repair itself, Marcus’s constant communication, professionalism, punctuality and workmanship was greatly appreciated and valued by our family. It is easy to understand why Marcus is in high demand within the region and we cannot thank Marcus enough for getting us ready for the fall/winter.

Constance Jackson

Marcus is thorough, professional, congenial and probably saved our house from burning down due to creosote buildup that had never been addressed in a 1920's chimney. The extent of creosote deposit would not have been discovered without the camera he uses. Thank you for preparing our chimney for a wood-burning insert!

Erin Wilson

Midtown did a fantastic job with our two wood burning stoves. They were professional, thorough, and great to work with! Will be contacting them every year for the great service! Special thanks to Beau for great communication and braving the cold day up in Nederland!

Response from the owner:Wonderful! We are proud of Beau and appreciate your positive review of our Chimney Sweep business in Boulder Fort Collins! - Byron

I just had a great experience with Midtown Chimney Sweeps! My technician, Marcus, was awesome. He was professional, genuinely kind, and clearly very knowledgeable about the work. He was extremely thorough in his inspection and cleaning, and the quality of his work was excellent. I especially appreciated that he made sure to leave the work area spotless. If you need your chimney serviced, ask for Marcus!

Super professional and wonderful to work with!

Nadine

Thank you for your assistance in getting the needed part for our gas fire place and for scheduling the service. It is so nice to have the fire place back in service!

I wanted to give a shout out to Anthony, the service he provided and his exceptional customer service. We thoroughly enjoyed the time(s) he was here and were impressed with his concern to make sure all aspects of the repair were working well. I'm sure you know what a great asset he is, but I wanted to let you know that we also think he is as well.

In a very good way, I hope we do not need the services of Midtown Chimney Sweeps in the future. However, should we need to have our gas fireplaces worked on, you can be sure we will reach out to you.
