The clothes dryer is responsible for a large amount of total household energy consumption…tips from the Wizard help residents save energy
Sterling, VA – Doug Bittner owns Dryer Vent Wizard specializing in dryer vent cleaning, repair and installation while educating consumers about the importance of dryer maintenance to prevent dryer fires and save energy. The Wizard suggests energy saving tips while performing an important home service.
The Wizard advises 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. Contact the Wizard for a dryer vent inspection and complete dryer maintenance service to enjoy peace of mind.
Doug Bittner shares 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://sterling.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) some simple changes in the laundry room can make a difference in the energy consumed by the washer and dryer. He suggests 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.
Dryer 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 cleaning dryer vents improves dryer performance and prolongs dryer life.
Clothes dryers are a wonderful invention, but they do require maintenance to assure safety in homes.
