Press Release Summary: Consumers appreciate Larry for his unending patience in
teaching them about their dryer vent systems and with tips on dryer fire safety

Press Release Body: Larry Butterfield, former automotive engineer, has transitioned
to owner/operator of a Dryer Vent Wizard, Safe Homes, Dry Clothes (DVW), franchise
in Detroit. “I found DVW provided much needed solutions to consumers’ dryer vent
problems,” says Butterfield.

DVW services help prevent dryer fires, keep dryers functioning properly and provide
energy savings through dryer and dryer vent maintenance, cleaning, repair,
replacement and alterations.

According to Butterfield, consumer response to DVW services has been positive. “When
consumers find their dryer taking more than one cycle to dry a load, they assume
it’s mechanical, when the real problem is lint accumulation in the dryer vent
causing the dryer to work inefficiently, and become more susceptible to a dryer
fire,” says Butterfield.

In an effort to make consumers more aware, Dryer Vent Wizard entrepreneur
Butterfield shares these maintenance “tips” to prevent dryer fires and keep dryers
running efficiently:

Dryer Maintenance Tips

Be sure that dryer vent systems are up to current code with city, state and
manufacturer.
Replace any plastic or foil vent with semi-rigid or solid metal venting.
Clean screen lint trays before and after drying a load.
Wash lint screens with soap and water every few months to remove residue left behind
by fabric softeners.
Don’t leave the house or go to bed with the dryer running.
Have dryer vents professionally cleaned and inspected annually.

Warning signs to look for:

Clothes are taking more than one cycle to dry, especially jeans and towels.
No lint visible on lint screen.
Dryer repeatedly stops during a cycle.
Clothes have moldy smell after dry cycle.

“Consumers who follow these guidelines,” says Butterfield, “will create a safer
environment in their homes, prolong the life of their dryer and save money on energy
bills.” Find more tips and information at http://www.dryerventwizard.com
