Clothes dry in one cycle. Not two. Not three.
Your energy bill drops because your dryer isn’t running overtime just to do its job. Most Converse homeowners see their drying time cut by 30% after a professional dryer duct cleaning, which translates to real savings—around $200 a year on average.
Your dryer lasts longer. When lint clogs your vent, your machine works harder than it should. That extra strain shortens its lifespan. Clean vents can add three to five years to your dryer, which means you’re not replacing a $600 appliance every few years.
And you’re not wondering if tonight’s the night your laundry room catches fire. Lint buildup causes nearly 3,000 dryer fires every year in the U.S. That’s not a scare tactic—it’s data from the U.S. Fire Administration. A clean vent removes that risk from your home.
We’re a veteran-owned HVAC company that’s been serving Converse and the greater San Antonio area since 2003. We’re not a franchise. We’re not a national chain with a local sticker slapped on the truck.
We know Texas homes. We understand how the heat, humidity, and dust in Converse affect your dryer vents differently than homes up north. We’ve cleaned thousands of vents in neighborhoods just like yours—from single-family homes near Judson Road to newer builds off FM 1516.
When you call us, you’re getting certified techs who show up on time, explain what they’re doing, and don’t try to upsell you on things you don’t need. That’s it.
We start by inspecting your entire dryer vent system—from the lint trap housing inside your laundry room to the exterior vent on the outside of your house. We’re looking for blockages, damage, and code violations that could cause problems down the road.
Then we disconnect your dryer and use professional-grade equipment to clean the vent line. That means rotary brushes and high-powered vacuums that pull out lint, debris, and anything else stuck in there. We clean the transition hose, the wall ductwork, and the exterior vent cap.
After everything’s clear, we reconnect your dryer, test airflow, and make sure it’s running the way it should. If we find any issues—like a damaged vent line or a vent that’s not up to code—we’ll explain what’s wrong and give you options. No pressure. No hidden fees. Just straight talk about what your home needs.
The whole process usually takes 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the length and complexity of your vent system.
Ready to get started?
You’re not just getting a guy with a leaf blower. This is a full dryer vent cleaning service that covers every part of your system.
We clean the lint trap housing, which most homeowners can’t access on their own. We clean the transition hose that connects your dryer to the wall. We clean the entire duct run inside your walls, which is where most of the buildup happens. And we clean the exterior vent, which can get clogged with debris, especially during Texas storms.
We also inspect for damage. If your vent line is crushed, disconnected, or venting into your attic instead of outside, we’ll catch it. These aren’t rare problems in Converse—especially in older homes or homes where the dryer was installed by someone who didn’t know what they were doing.
And because we’re an HVAC company, we understand airflow. We know how your vent system should perform, and we can tell when something’s off. That’s the difference between hiring a dedicated dryer vent service and hiring a company that actually understands how air moves through your home.
Most homes need dryer vent cleaning once a year. That’s the baseline recommendation from safety experts and appliance manufacturers.
But if you’re running your dryer more than average—large family, lots of laundry, or you’re drying heavy items like towels and bedding multiple times a week—you might need it twice a year. Same goes if you have a long vent run or multiple bends in your ductwork, which makes it easier for lint to get stuck.
In Converse, we also see faster buildup during peak usage seasons. When it’s hot and humid, people run their dryers more. Lint accumulates faster. If your clothes are taking longer to dry, if the dryer feels hot to the touch, or if you smell something burning, don’t wait for your annual appointment. Call us now.
The most obvious sign is longer drying times. If a load that used to take 45 minutes now takes two or three cycles, your vent is probably clogged.
Other signs: your dryer is hot to the touch on the outside, your laundry room feels more humid than usual, or you notice a burning smell when the dryer’s running. You might also see lint around the outside vent opening, or the vent flap on the exterior of your house doesn’t open when the dryer’s on.
These aren’t things you should ignore. A clogged vent doesn’t just cost you money—it’s a fire hazard. According to the U.S. Fire Administration, 34% of dryer fires are caused by failure to clean the vent. That’s the leading cause. If you’re seeing any of these signs, it’s time to clean out your dryer vent before it becomes a bigger problem.
Most professional dryer vent cleaning services in Converse run between $100 and $200, depending on the complexity of your system. If your vent is short, straight, and easy to access, you’ll be on the lower end. If it’s long, has multiple turns, or requires roof access, it’ll cost more.
We give you upfront pricing before we start. No surprises. No hidden fees. If we find something that needs repair—like a damaged vent line or a vent that’s not up to code—we’ll explain what it is, why it matters, and what it’ll cost to fix. You decide if you want to move forward.
Here’s the thing: even at $200, this service pays for itself. A clogged vent can increase your energy costs by 30% or more. That’s $200+ a year in wasted electricity. Add in the cost of premature dryer failure or, worse, a house fire, and the ROI is obvious. You’re not spending money—you’re protecting an investment.
You can clean the lint trap and the area around it yourself. You should be doing that after every load. But the vent line that runs through your walls and exits outside your house? That’s a different story.
Most homeowners don’t have the tools to do it right. You need rotary brushes, high-powered vacuums, and the know-how to navigate bends and long runs without damaging the ductwork. A vacuum hose from your garage won’t cut it.
There’s also the inspection piece. A professional dryer vent cleaning service doesn’t just remove lint—we check for damage, disconnections, code violations, and airflow issues that you wouldn’t catch on your own. We’ve seen vents that were venting into attics, vents made from the wrong materials, and vents that were completely crushed. Those problems don’t get fixed with a DIY kit from the hardware store.
If your vent is short and you’re confident you can access the whole thing, go for it. But if you’re not sure, or if it’s been more than a year since it was cleaned, call someone who knows what they’re doing.
Yes. Lint buildup is the leading cause of dryer fires, accounting for 34% of all residential dryer fires in the U.S. That’s nearly 3,000 fires a year, according to the U.S. Fire Administration.
Lint is extremely flammable. When it builds up in your vent, it restricts airflow, which causes your dryer to overheat. Add a little spark from the heating element, and you’ve got a fire. It’s not a matter of if—it’s a matter of when.
Dryer vent cleaning to prevent fire isn’t optional maintenance. It’s essential. Most of these fires happen in the fall and winter, when people are running their dryers more often. January is the peak month. If you haven’t had your vent cleaned in over a year, or if you’re seeing any of the warning signs we talked about earlier, don’t wait. This is one of those things where an ounce of prevention is worth a lot more than a pound of cure.
Because we’ve been doing HVAC work in Converse and the San Antonio area for over 20 years. We’re not a dryer vent-only company that showed up last year. We’re a veteran-owned business with certified techs who understand how air moves through your home.
We don’t oversell. We don’t surprise you with hidden fees. We show up, do the work, explain what we found, and give you options if something needs attention. That’s it.
We also offer 24/7 emergency service, which matters if you’ve got a dryer that’s overheating or smells like it’s about to catch fire. You’re not waiting until Monday morning to get help. And because we’re a full-service HVAC company, if we find an issue with your ductwork or ventilation system, we can handle it. You’re not getting referred to someone else.
You’re hiring people who know what they’re doing, who’ve been doing it for decades, and who live and work in the same community you do.
