Manchester CT – The Manchester Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard has joined a nationwide effort to raise funds for the Children’s Burn Foundation. Dryer Vent Wizard is a member of the National Fire Protection Association and a nationwide franchise specializing in commercial and residential dryer vent service.
In remembrance of National Fire Prevention Month in October, the Wizard will be selling wristbands with the company’s slogan, “Prevent a Fire, Clean Your Dryer” for a small donation of just $5.00.

Over 17,000 dryer fires are reported each year resulting in deaths, injuries and nearly $200 million in property damage. Clogged dryer vents are a leading cause of dryer related hazards.
“We are proud to participate in a nationwide effort to raise funds for the Children’s Burn Foundation to help children burned in fires,” said John Moffat, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard.
The dryer vent service Wizard provides the following advice to eliminate dryer related hazards and improve dryer performance:
• Replace vinyl or foil dryer ducts with semi-rigid or solid metal venting
• Clean the lint screen after every load of laundry
• Wash the lint filter with soap and water to remove residue left behind by dryer sheets
• Do not store flammable items like cleaning supplies, paint thinner and cardboard boxes around heat producing appliances
