(EstateNewsWire.com, November 08, 2012 ) Sterling VA – The Sterling Dryer Vent Installation Wizard reveals shocking statistics related to clothes dryers. 9 out of 10 dryer vent systems are either improperly installed or constructed of the wrong material. Though failure to clean dryer vents is the leading cause of dryer fires, improper dryer vent installation is also hazardous.
More than 80% of Americans own a clothes dryers, but only 20 percent are aware of the importance of dryer vent cleaning to prevent dryer fires. More than 17,000 dryer fires are reported each year with poor maintenance being the number one cause. 90 percent of all appliance fires are dryer related.

The Wizard specializes in commercial and residential dryer vent cleaning, dryer vent repair and new dryer vent installation.
The Bittners advise their customers about the warning signs to watch for, including increased drying time, little or no lint on the lint screen, excess lint left on clothing, dryer stopping during a cycle, clothes are hot to the touch or have a moldy smell after a cycle, or the top of the dryer heating up while running. Dryer vent inspection by the Wizard will reveal potential problems that can lead to disaster when left unchecked.
The Wizard explains to customers that besides being a fire hazard, poorly vented clothes dryers can cost an additional $300 per year to operate. Gas dryers must be properly vented to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Dryer vent installation by a qualified service technician ensures safety and efficiency.
