Excess Pet Hair on Clothing
How Pet Hair Buildup Affects Drying Performance
We love our furry friends—but not the pet hair left behind on freshly dried clothes.
Excess pet hair can quickly accumulate in your dryer vent, reducing airflow and creating potential hazards. If you're still finding cat or dog hair on your laundry after a drying cycle, your vent system may not be functioning properly. Dryer Vent Ninjas can help with professional vent cleaning that keeps pet hair where it belongs—and off your clothes.
How to Fix Excess Pet Hair on Clothing
If cleaning your lint trap after each load doesn’t help remove the pet hair, schedule a Dryer Vent Wizard expert to perform a professional inspection and cleaning.
Dryer Vent Cleaning
Dryer vent cleaning is especially important for homes with pets, where excess hair can quickly clog the vent system.
Pet hair restricts airflow, reduces efficiency, and increases fire risk. At Dryer Vent Ninjas, we remove built-up hair and lint to restore proper airflow and keep your dryer running safely and effectively.
Dryer Vent System Inspection
Dryer vent inspections are especially important in homes with pets, where hair can quickly clog the system.
Our service professionals identify and remove pet hair buildup that restricts airflow and leads to poor dryer performance. We’ll catch issues early to help prevent future problems—keeping your clothes cleaner and your system running efficiently.
Dryer Delinting
Dryer delinting clears out built-up pet hair and lint from inside the dryer cabinet—an area often missed during routine cleanings.
This service helps prevent pet hair from ending up on freshly dried clothes and lowers the risk of fire by keeping flammable debris away from hot components. It’s a smart way to boost both safety and dryer performance in pet-friendly homes.
Dryer Vent Debris and Clog Removal
Clearing clogs and debris from your dryer vent system ensures proper airflow—helping prevent pet hair from sticking to your clothes after drying.
When your vent is working as it should, pet hair is carried out of the system, not left behind on your laundry.
Booster Fan Cleaning
Over time, pet hair can build up inside your booster fan, reducing airflow and overall system performance.
Professional cleaning removes this buildup, allowing the fan to operate efficiently and push pet hair out of the vent system—resulting in fresher laundry and a safer, more effective dryer.

Is my dryer a potential fire hazard?
Unfortunately, dryers are a common cause of home fires. According to the National Fire Protection Association, on average, a dryer related fire occurs every 37 minutes in the U.S. Many of these could have been avoided by regular maintenance and cleaning of the vent line.
Does a clogged dryer vent impact the air quality in my home?
Yes, it can.
When dryer vents become clogged with lint, dust, and debris, they trap hot, humid air inside the system instead of venting it outside. This buildup can lead to mold and mildew growth—potentially affecting indoor air quality and causing respiratory issues, especially for those with asthma or allergies. In gas dryers, blockages may also result in dangerous carbon monoxide buildup, posing a serious safety hazard.
Can cleaning your dryer vent help reduce energy usage?
Your clothes dryer is one of the highest energy-consuming appliances in your home—accounting for around 6% of total electricity use.
When vents are clogged, airflow is restricted, forcing the dryer to work harder and use more energy per load. Clearing out that lint not only boosts efficiency but also helps extend the life of your dryer by reducing strain. In fact, improved performance from a clean vent can save you up to $300 a year on energy costs..
Why is vent cleaning essential for gas dryers?
Gas dryers produce carbon monoxide as part of the combustion process.
If the vent becomes clogged, this dangerous gas can back up into your home instead of being safely exhausted outside. Regular dryer vent cleaning is essential to maintain proper airflow, ensure safe operation, and help prevent carbon monoxide exposure.
Why is dryer vent maintenance important for controlling home humidity?
During a typical drying cycle, your dryer removes up to a gallon of moisture from your laundry.
That moisture, along with warm air and lint, travels through the vent system to be released outside. When the vent is clogged, it traps heat and humidity indoors—raising your home’s moisture levels. Regular dryer vent cleaning not only reduces fire risk, but also helps keep indoor humidity in check, creating a more comfortable environment for your family.
Does cleaning your dryer vent reduce environmental impact?
Regular dryer vent cleaning offers key benefits like improved energy efficiency, fewer unexpected (and expensive) breakdowns, and reduced release of lint and debris into your home and the environment.
