Professional dryer vent cleaning is typically done from the exterior of the home. Dryer vents are located on exterior walls and are sometimes found on the roof. First, your technician will locate the vent on the exterior of your home. A special dryer vent cleaning tool, which uses high pressure compressed air, will then be snaked through the vent from end to end, dislodging and forcing the lint and debris back towards the exterior of the home. Occasionally access from the exterior is not possible and the vent would be cleaned by disconnecting the vent from the back of the dryer. Unfortunately, not all dryers can be moved to allow access from this vantage point.
