They said they’d clean it next week.
Then the dryer overheated, the vent caught fire, and the fire trucks showed up before they could grab a photo album.
Nobody got hurt. However, despite the flames, smoke, and water damage, the final bill came to $23,400.
All from lint.
Here’s the truth no one likes to hear:
Dryer fires aren’t rare. According to the National Fire Protection Association:
- 2,900 homes go up in smoke every year
- 34% of those fires come from vents clogged with lint
- And most of that lint hides inside walls.
Out of sight. Until you smell it.
But here’s the move that works:
Dryer vent cleaning. The real kind. Not the quick vacuum job. A proper cleaning:
- Clears the duct, the wall port, and the flap outside
- Takes under 30 minutes
- Needs to happen 2 to 4 times a year (more if you’ve got pets, kids, or both)
We handle it every quarter for our plan members.
It’s not about dryer efficiency. It’s about not having to sleep in a hotel.
