The Chicago Wizard Reminds Consumers to Clean Dryer Vents in Memory of Fire Prevention

Sept. 28, 2009 - PRLog -- Chicago, IL – Mory Matias owns Dryer Vent Wizard in Chicago.  Dryer Vent Wizard provides dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation services while teaching consumers how to prevent dryer fires.  Mory is making an extra effort to promote consumer awareness in observation of Fire Prevention Week.  This means a lot to Matias as he is from Chicago, which is where Fire Prevention Week originated.

Fire Prevention Week was established to commemorate the Great Chicago Fire, a tragedy that occurred in 1871.  The devastation caused more than 250 deaths and left over 100,000 people homeless as more than 17,000 buildings were destroyed.  The 2,000 acre fire began on October 8 and did most of its damage on the 9th.

Mory Matias has been writing articles and creating blogs to help generate public awareness on the importance of proper appliance maintenance.  “Dryer vent cleaning is the best way to prevent clothes dryer related fires,” said Matias.  “Dryer vent cleaning also helps clothes dryers operate more efficiently to save energy.”  Read Mory’s blog at http://dryerventcleaningchicago.blogspot.com/

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports over 15,000 fires annually, resulting in deaths, injuries and expense.  Failure to clean dryer vents was the number one cause.  Fires can occur when lint builds up in the dryer or in the exhaust duct, blocking the flow of air and causing excessive heat build-up, eventually leading to a fire.  Dryer Vent Wizard advises that simply cleaning the lint filter is not enough to properly maintain the dryer vent system.  Annual, professional dryer vent cleaning is key to preventing dryer fires.
