Fire prevention week is October 5-11 and DUCTZ Indoor Air Professionals is urging consumers to help protect their families and homes from the danger of fire by properly maintaining their dryer vents. The U.S. Fire Administration’s Topical Fire Research Studies report states that over 15,000 home fires occur annually and an estimated $99 million are lost annually to clothes dryer-related fires.
DUCTZ, a duct cleaning and ventilation restoration organization with franchises nationwide, specializes in dryer vent cleaning and maintenance. DUCTZ offers consumers crucial tips to reduce the risk of dryer vent-related fires.
“Helping keep families across the country safe from the threat of dryer vent fire is a crucial part of our service,” said John Rotche, President of DUCTZ. “The theme of this year’s Fire Prevention week is Preventing Home Fire, and that is what DUCTZ aims to do at every opportunity.”
