How To Clean Dryer Vent Ducts

To clean your dryer ducts effectively, you’ll want to ensure that your dryer vent professional cleans your dryer vent from both ends, removing any obstructions in between. Here are the dryer vent cleaning steps Planet Duct follows at every job:

  1. First, starting at the exterior vent, we use a special dryer cleaning tool to snake the line outside of your house down to your dryer.
  2. The tool pulls all of the lint from your dryer outside of your house by suctioning it backward.
  3. Next, we fish the line through multiple times until it comes out completely clean.
  4. After cleaning your dryer from the outside of the home, we will shift focus to the back of your dryer.
