Dryer Fire PreventionTips from the Middletown Dryer Vent Installation Wizard
October is Fire Prevention Month and the time of the year when many home fires and carbon monoxide poisonings occur
[USPRwire, Fri Sep 24 2010] Dryer vent installation is a simple concept, but there are several common mistakes that homeowners and amateurs make when they attempt to do it themselves. Don Brusseau is the Middletown Dryer Vent Installation Wizard. “I find problems with 9 out of 10 dryer vent systems that I inspect,” said Brusseau. “Poorly installed dryer vent systems can be a fire hazard and cause a dryer to cost substantially more money to operate.”
Fall is a busy time of the year for most people. It is also the time of year when most house fires occur; therefore, it is a good time to be sure all appliances are in good working order. Annual dryer vent cleaning is recommended to maintain dryer safety and performance.
Don Brusseau, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, is providing fire safety tips to consumers in recognition of Fire Prevention Month in October. Don is a certified dryer exhaust technician who specializes in dryer vent services. “I take great pride in building relationships with my customers and educating them on efficient use and maintenance of their dryer vent system,” said Brusseau. “My customers benefit from peace of mind that their dryer vent system is safe and free from fire hazard.”
Don Brusseau, along with over 50 other Dryer Vent Wizard franchisees, have been busy writing articles and creating interesting and informative blogs for consumers to read and learn about the danger of dryer lint build-up and the importance of annual dryer vent cleaning. In spite of all their efforts the number of dryer fires as increased to over 17,000 per year.
According to Brusseau, fire is not the only threat associated with the Fall season. Carbon monoxide poisoning is another concern for people who have gas powered appliances. “Most people associate carbon monoxide poisoning with the furnace,” said Brusseau. “Clothes dryers, water heaters and other gas appliances must be properly maintained and vented to eliminate a carbon monoxide threat. I also suggest that people install a carbon monoxide detector in their home and check it often to be sure it is functioning properly.”
