Professional Dryer Vent Repair & Installation
Upgrade to Safe Metal Piping. Prevent Leaks. Meet Code.
Is Your Dryer Vent Hose a Fire Trap?
Many homes still use white plastic vinyl or foil "accordion" hoses to connect their dryer to the wall. These materials are a major fire hazard because they are flammable, easily crushed, and trap huge amounts of lint in their ridges.
Rivo Clean specializes in upgrading dangerous dryer vent systems to meet current safety codes. We serve homeowners within a 60-mile radius, replacing unsafe flexible hoses with smooth, rigid galvanized steel piping. This not only significantly reduces the risk of fire but also improves airflow, allowing your clothes to dry faster.
Whether your vent has disconnected inside the wall, crushed behind the machine, or the exterior cover is damaged, our expert technicians can fix it permanently.
Common Issues We Fix
Don't let a small repair turn into a major disaster.
Unsafe Materials
Plastic and foil hoses are prohibited by most building codes. We replace them with 4-inch rigid metal ducting that contains fires.
Disconnects
Vents often disconnect inside walls or attics, pumping hot, humid, lint-filled air into your home structure, causing mold and rot.
Exterior Damage
Damaged or missing exterior vent hoods allow birds, mice, and cold air to enter your home. We install durable, pest-proof covers.
Our Repair & Installation Process
We build systems that last. No shortcuts.
Custom Sizing
We measure and cut rigid metal piping to the exact length needed for your laundry room setup. Short, straight runs are best for efficiency.
Proper Sealing
We use high-temperature foil tape for all joints. We NEVER use screws, as they protrude into the pipe and catch lint, creating clogs.
Exterior Protection
We seal the exterior penetration with silicone caulk to prevent water intrusion and install a hood that opens only when the dryer is running.
The Rivo Clean Difference
We treat every installation as if it were in our own home. We pride ourselves on clean lines, airtight seals, and adherence to safety standards.
Why Upgrade to Rigid Metal?
- Fire Containment: Metal piping can contain a dryer fire, preventing it from spreading to the walls.
- Smooth Airflow: The smooth interior surface allows air and lint to flow freely, reducing clogging.
- Crush Resistant: Unlike foil or plastic, rigid metal won't crush when you push the dryer back into place.
- Longevity: A properly installed metal system will last for the life of your home.
