Dryer Vent Installation Services You Can Count On

Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps not only helps maintain dryer vent systems — we can also help our customers start off on the right foot with a proper, safer dryer vent installation.

Why Is It So Important To Have A Properly-Installed Dryer Vent?

When dryer vents are properly installed, they’re better equipped to vent the heated air, moisture, carbon monoxide, and other byproducts produced by the appliance. A properly-installed dryer vent will allow your dryer to do its job far more efficiently.

The more efficiently a dryer vent exhausts air, gases, and debris, the less likely it is to accumulate lint. And in the same way excess creosote deposits cause a mix of problems in your flue, excess lint causes various problems in your dryer vents, ranging from poor drying performance (which will cause you to waste money and energy running and re-running your appliance) to possible carbon monoxide leakage and dryer fires.

Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps wants to help you get the most out of the appliance you’ve purchased, and to help minimize the dangers of a poorly-exhausting dryer vent. We offer dryer vent inspection, cleaning, and installation, as well as diagnosis of problems with your dryer vent system.

How Should Dryer Vents Be Installed?

In order to properly install dryer vents, a technician needs to have access to the best materials and knowledge of the best practices. Our technicians are trained to understand the science behind a properly-functioning dryer vent system, and they make use of the best tools, materials, and methods in the industry.

We start with proper design and placement. Long dryer exhausts and vents with a lot of bends and turns accumulate more lint. Venting made of flexible metal or plastic tubing gives lint more places to get caught up and accumulate as well.

Short vents made with rigid metal pipes encourage excellent exhaust and accumulate less lint. Along with making it harder for lint to build up, rigid metal also stands up to the high temperatures that a hard-working dryer will create, while flexible plastic or aluminum tubing can deteriorate rapidly when exposed to that heat.

Basic function and exhaust aren’t your only concerns when it comes to your dryer venting system’s design, either. Birds and rodents can also take up residence in your dryer vent, and use it as a tunnel to make their way into your home. A proper installation should include preventative measures to keep this from happening.

We Provide Professional Gas Log Installation Services

The installation process for gas logs will depend on the type of gas logs you’ve chosen to have Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps add to your home. With a vented gas log set, we’ll install the logs to vent through your existing chimney. Many vent-free units also require a working chimney. With some vent-less gas log set, a working chimney isn’t needed in order for the appliance to work as it was designed to. Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps’ technicians are trained to know what’s what and make sure what goes in, goes in correctly.

The first step in proper vented gas log installation is to have your chimney swept and inspected to make sure that the system is working properly and that the flue is free of creosote and other deposits.

If your chimney isn’t capable of properly venting the byproducts of a wood-burning appliance, it isn’t suitable for vented gas logs, either. It would either need to be repaired so that it is capable, or a different option would need to be explored.  There are options and Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps can help you navigate through them to find one that fits you and your home.

Gas Log Installation Isn’t DIY Work

Taking on home projects can be fun and rewarding, but installing gas logs isn’t a project suited for homeowners. When installed incorrectly, gas appliances can quickly become dangerous, leading to fires or deadly carbon monoxide poisoning. Blue Sky Chimney Sweeps’ technicians are trained in the proper installation of gas logs, so you can trust that your installation will be done properly, and that your logs will function as safely as possible.

Safety Is Important: Always Have A Working Carbon Monoxide Detector

Gas appliances are convenient and clean-burning, but we always want to be cognizant of the fact that carbon monoxide is produced by these appliances. It’s highly recommended that any homeowner with a gas appliance, including gas logs, have a working carbon monoxide detector in their home. Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, and deadly gas, and you want to make sure that you’re doing all you can do to keep abreast of any leaks in the system.
