Mallard Lakes Ad hoc Committee Revised Dryer Vent Information (6/6)
The information presented in this flyer is for information purpose only and is not a recommendation by the Mallard Lakes Board or the Ad hoc Committee.
The Mallard Lakes Ad hoc Committee was formed to address the issue of owner’s Dryer Vents: Cleaning & Replacement if needed. The Committee contacted six companies regarding the scope & cost of the work to clean/replace dryer vents. Because of the length of the venting and the 90-degree angles, the Committee was informed that the rotary brush vacuum method is preferable to having the vents “blown” out.
The Committee found Chesapeake Home Performance, LLC to offer the best prices and the broadest range/scope of services: namely, camera assessment, rotary brush vacuum and if needed metal dryer pipe replacement. Chesapeake offers a free analysis, but they do not do wall repair. However, the Committee has identified the following sources of repair services under: Home Advisor- Drywall Repair – Handyman List –
