Don Brusseau, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, combines service with education to advise his customers about dryer fire prevention. As lint builds up in the dryer duct air flow is restricted and the dryer overworks and overheats, eventually leading to malfunction or a dryer fire. In addition, a clogged dryer vent can make the dryer cost an additional $300 per year to operate.

Dryer lint is highly flammable and all it takes is a spark from the dryer to cause it to ignite and start a rapidly spreading fire.
