Why Professional Cleaning Matters for Laundromats
Reduce fire risk, boost throughput, and protect equipment
Laundromats generate heavy lint loads and continuous heat, which makes clean dryer exhaust paths essential. As lint accumulates in long runs, elbows, shared trunks, and rooftop terminations, airflow drops and exhaust temperatures rise. That strain leads to longer dry times, tripped high-limit thermostats, premature component wear, and an elevated fire risk. Routine, professional cleaning keeps ducts clear so dryers can move air efficiently and safely, in line with NFPA and local mechanical code requirements.
Beyond safety, clean vents deliver measurable business benefits: faster cycles that reduce bottlenecks, lower utility consumption, fewer emergency service calls, and extended dryer life. SB Vent Cleaning’s Laundromat Dryer Vent Cleaning service is built for multi-dryer banks, shared duct systems, and continuous operation environments—helping you maintain uptime, throughput, and customer satisfaction.
Full-system cleaning from lint traps to roof terminations
We start with a detailed inspection to map each dryer run and shared trunk, protect work areas, and isolate machines or banks as needed. Technicians measure baseline airflow and backpressure, visually assess duct material and condition, and use camera inspection where access allows. We follow documented safety procedures and coordinate with staff to minimize disruption.
Cleaning combines rotary brush agitation with high-powered vacuum collection and air sweeping to remove lint from duct interiors, tees, elbows, and transitions. We service booster fans and backdraft dampers, clear roof terminations and caps, and verify exterior guards are unobstructed. After reassembly, we seal accessible joints with code-compliant materials, verify termination flap operation, record final airflow/backpressure readings, and provide before-and-after photos plus a service report with maintenance recommendations.
Set a data-driven cleaning schedule for peak performance
Ideal service intervals depend on volume, dryer type, duct length/complexity, and whether trunks are shared. High-volume locations often benefit from monthly to bi-monthly vent cleaning for primary runs and quarterly service for shared trunks; moderate throughput sites typically follow a quarterly or semiannual cadence. SB Vent Cleaning uses measured backpressure, airflow, and lint load to tailor the optimal schedule for your operation.
Watch for indicators that cleaning is due: longer cycle times, unusually hot machines or laundry, frequent high-limit trips, lint odors, visible lint around vents, booster fans running louder than normal, exterior flaps that barely open, or rising energy bills. Burning smells or signs of heat discoloration warrant immediate shutdown and inspection.
We verify performance with instruments—measuring backpressure in inches of water column and airflow with anemometry—then compare results to manufacturer specifications. Our goal is to keep exhaust resistance comfortably within spec, reduce strain on motors and belts, and maintain adequate make-up air so dryers operate safely and efficiently.
