The laundry room is responsible for a large amount of total household energy consumption…tips from the Wizard help residents save energy
Arlington, VA –Dryer Vent Wizard specializes in dryer vent cleaning, repair and new dryer vent installation while educating the customer about proper maintenance to prevent dryer fires and improve dryer performance. Owner, Doug Bittner provides energy saving tips while performing an important home service.
Doug explains to his customers that cleaning dryer vents is not only the best way to prevent dryer fires; it is also the number one green idea for the laundry room. Poorly vented dryers can cost an additional $300 per year to operate. Proper dryer vent installation is also critical to safety.
Service technicians share information with area residents about newer washers and dryers with energy saving benefits including front loading washers that use less water and dryers with moisture sensors to stop the dryer when clothes are dry. “This doesn’t mean you have to go out and buy new appliances,” said Bittner. “There are many things you can do to save energy while using the set you currently own.”
According to the Wizard (http://arlington.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) some simple laundry room habits can make a difference in the energy consumed by the washer and dryer. They suggest doing only full loads of laundry, but being careful not to over load. Also using cold water for most laundry is just as effective as hot water in getting clothes clean and it prevents bright colors from fading.
Maintenance is the biggest factor in saving energy. Regular dryer vent cleaning service by the Wizard ensures clothes dryers operate safely and efficiently. In addition dryer vent cleaning improves dryer performance and prolongs dryer life.
