Former Fed-Ex Contractor, Steve Gors, Turns Dryer Vent Wizard Entrepreneur; Customers Appreciate

Sept. 8, 2008 - PRLog -- Steve Gors, former Fed-Ex contractor, traded his delivery van for a logo-ed uniform to own and operate a Dryer Vent Wizard, Safe Homes, Dry Clothes (DVW) franchise in Riverside County.

DVW services prevent dryer fires, keep dryers functioning properly and provide energy savings through dryer and dryer vent maintenance, cleaning, repair, replacement and alterations.

When Gors decided he didn’t want back into the grocery business and wasn’t ready to retire, he looked into franchising. Having 30 years of business related skills behind him gave him a wealth of experience on which to draw. He researched several concepts and found Dryer Vent Wizard Dry Clothes, Safe Homes.  Despite the funny name, Gors found the concept intriguing.
   
“I liked that DVW provided much needed solutions to consumers’ dryer and dryer vent problems which ultimately prevents dryer fires,” says Gors.     

According to Gors, consumer response to DVW has been positive, although a big part of what he does is educating.  “When consumers find their dryer taking more than one cycle to dry a load, they assume it’s mechanical when the real problem is lint accumulation in the dryer vent, causing the dryer to work inefficiently and become susceptible to a dryer fire,” says Gors.  
   
In an effort to make consumers more aware, entrepreneur Gors shares these maintenance “tips” to prevent dryer fires and keep dryers running efficiently.  He urges consumers to be sure their dryer vent systems are up to code with the city, state and manufacturer, to replace any plastic or foil vents with semi-rigid or solid metal venting material, to keep lint trays clean and free of lint between loads, wash lint screens every few months to remove residue build-up from fabric softeners, and to have the dryer vent system professionally cleaned and inspected at least once a year.  Steve also makes sure all his customers know not to leave the house or go to sleep with the dryer running.  

Steve tells his customers to watch for certain warning signs of potential fire hazards, like clothes taking more than one cycle to dry, no visible lint on the screen between loads, dryer repeatedly stopping during a cycle and clothes having a moldy smell after drying.
