Dryer Duct Booster Fans
A dryer duct booster fan is specially designed to solve the problem of slow drying times as a result of a long clothes dryer duct. Long duct runs, including ducts that have multiple elbows (bends), can not only extend your drying time, but cause a dangerous build-up of lint within the dryer duct. In convoluted and long duct runs, a dryer duct booster fan can shorten the time of your drying -- up to 50 percent. Because shortened drying times save energy, it's not only better for your wallet, but better for the planet too.
Depending on the duct length and number of bends, a dryer booster fan is
necessary according to some installation dryer instructions and some local
building codes. Historically, dryers were designed to be positioned on an outer
wall, with a very short duct to vent out of the area. However, in today's
condos, apartments, homes, and buildings, laundry areas are often housed in
interior locations using extensive ducts. As a result, most typical dryers can't
operate as efficiently as they should with this excessive duct work. What's
more, because many dryer installations don't use direct venting, there's undue
wear on the dryer. In these situations, a duct booster fan is the ideal
solution. |
