Bloom Air Duct Cleaning completed a dryer vent cleaning at a home in Lakewood, Dallas, just off the trails around White Rock Lake. The homeowner had noticed clothes taking two cycles to dry and the laundry room getting unusually warm — two classic signs of a dangerously clogged dryer vent.
What We Found in the Attic
When our technician traced the dryer duct up into the attic, the problem was obvious. The duct had come loose from its connection near the joist and was packed solid with lint — venting hot, lint-filled air straight into the attic insulation instead of outside.
This is one of the most dangerous setups we find. A disconnected duct dumping lint into an attic is a real fire hazard — lint is highly flammable, and attic heat plus a hot dryer is exactly how dryer fires start.
What We Did
Our team removed the packed lint from the full length of the duct, cleared the debris out of the attic, reconnected the duct properly, and confirmed strong airflow all the way to the exterior vent. The dryer now vents outside the way it should, and drying times are back to a single cycle.
