The last few inches matter most.
The vent hood outside is where lint, dust, leaves and nests collect first. A quick, targeted cleaning keeps the flap moving and the air flowing.
- Cleans: Hood, flap and last stretch of duct
- Check: Seal around the hood
What it is, and why it matters.
Even if the duct is clean, a packed hood can block the exit. The flap sticks, lint crusts around it, and pests move in.
We clean the hood and the last stretch of duct, check the flap, remove debris and check the seal around the hood. If the hood is damaged, we suggest replacement.
Four things done right.
The exit stays open
A free flap lets the air leave.
Debris removed
Leaves, lint and nests come out.
Seal checked
We look for gaps around the hood.
Honest advice
If the hood is worn, we suggest replacing it.

Vent Hood and Termination Cleaning: common questions
