A 3-year old hero is honored for helping his family escape safely from a dryer fire
Forest Hills, NY – The Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard warns homeowners that over 17,000 fires are associated with clothes dryers each year, accounting for deaths, injuries and millions of dollars in property damages. Dryer Vent Wizard service technicians are dedicated to minimizing the risk of dryer fires in their community by educating their customers.
Customers appreciate the valuable information and his dedication to keeping them safe. The Wizard spends time with each customer to be sure they understand any upgrades or corrections needed to improve the efficiency and safety of their dryer vent system. He explains how a dryer fire starts and spreads quickly with dryer lint being the main fuel source. Dryer vent cleaning is the best way to properly maintain a dryer to promote safety and energy savings.
John Ryley, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard (http://www.forresthillsqueensny.dryerventcleaningnow.com/) recalls reading about a dryer fire where a three-year old boy was honored for saving the lives of his family. New York fire officials declared him a junior firefighter and presented him with a badge and certificate, a NY city Fire Dept jacket, and other gifts. When he noticed the fire, the boy shook his father awake while yelling “alarm, alarm, alarm!” His father was able to put out the fire with a fire extinguisher. The boy’s parents said he learned fire safety in school and that he now makes it a point to check for smoke detectors everywhere he goes.
In addition to preventing fires and reducing energy costs dryer vent cleaning and service by the Wizard will reduce wear and tear on the appliance, extend the life of the dryer and reduce the need for repairs.
John Ryley believes service combined with education is a step in the right direction toward preventing clothes dryer fires in his neighborhood. “Educating children also helps,” said Ryley. “Recent events prove that children as young as 3 years old can understand fire safety procedures and save lives.”
John Ryley has a sincere desire to make a difference in his community. John will do a complete dryer vent inspection and make necessary corrections to be sure it is working safely and efficiently. Professional dryer vent installation and regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning will make the clothes dryer operate safely and efficiently.
