Unfortunately these booster fans needed to be replaced after the motors burnt out from becoming clogged with lint.

A dryer booster fan is a motorized device that increases airflow in dryer vent lines, helping to improve drying efficiency, especially in long vent runs, vertical runs and complex with turns and multiple bends. It reduces drying times, lowers energy costs, and minimizes the risk of lint build-up, which can be a fire hazard.

Like most mechanical devices regularly scheduled cleaning and visual inspections help to keep your booster fan running safely and efficiently. It is also important to verify that the booster fan is functioning every time the dryer is on.

Lint enters your dryer vent lines with everyday normal use of your dryer and will build up over time. If left unchecked the accumulation of lint can lead to vent blockages resulting in insufficient air flow, increased moisture and heat within the system, resulting in premature dryer mechanical failure and an increase fire hazard.

The build-up of lint also has a direct effect on dryer booster fans resulting in…

Overheating and motor failure: Dryer booster fans operate under continuous heat, making them susceptible to overheating. Lint build-up on the fan blades and cause the motor to work harder and overheat, leading to early failure and costly repair or replacement.

Noisy Operation: A build-up of lint on the booster fan blades can put extra strain on the bearings. Excessive noise can also indicate there is a underlying mechanical issue, loose components, worn bearing and debris caught in the fan blades.

Our professionally trained technicians installed new booster fans so the dryer vent system can preform optimally.
