Recent news reported a clothes dryer fire in an apartment building causing serious damage and leaving occupants homeless. Thankfully, there were no injuries, but many people lost everything they have. “Most upsetting is the fact that this could have easily been prevented,” said Carl Hein, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, servicing the Twin City area of Minnesota. Carl Hein, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard recently attended landlord’s association meeting, where he set up a display to demonstrate dryer vent safety. He brought samples of proper and improper dryer vent material and explained how using the wrong type can create a fire hazard. “Dryer vents should be professionally inspected at least once a year to prevent lint build-up from causing a fire. When tenants don’t properly maintain their dryer vent systems, the landlords end up being liable for whatever happens. In large buildings, many lives are at risk, because of one negligent tenant,” Carl explained. Dryer Vent Wizard, Dry Clothes, Safe Homes, specializes in dryer vent cleaning, repair, installation and alterations. They also provide a great service to their community, educating each customer in dryer vent maintenance and dryer fire prevention. “My job isn’t finished until my customer understands how to properly maintain their dryer vent system between annual inspections,” said Carl. Carl Hein urges landlords and apartment building managers to have all dryer vents in the building professionally cleaned and inspected at least once a year or whenever a tenant moves out. “The cost of the inspections and necessary repairs is really small compared to potential damages, injuries and even loss of lives if a fire should occur,” said Carl.
