Expert service for classic homes and new construction in Brookhaven
Brookhaven has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, evolving from a collection of established neighborhoods into one of metro Atlanta's most desirable cities. This growth has created a unique mix of classic mid-century ranch homes in areas like Ashford Park alongside modern new construction in Town Brookhaven and along the Peachtree Road corridor. Each property type presents distinct dryer vent challenges, and Fresh Air Duct specializes in serving both - whether your home needs a complete vent system upgrade or routine maintenance on a brand-new installation.
Brookhaven's diverse housing stock requires specialized dryer vent expertise:
Many Brookhaven homes in Ashford Park, Drew Valley, and Historic Brookhaven were built in the 1950s-1970s when dryer vent standards were far less stringent. These properties often have flexible plastic or foil ducts (now known fire hazards), vents terminating in attics or crawl spaces, or decades of accumulated lint that poses serious danger. Our technicians assess these older systems and can recommend upgrades to bring them to current safety standards.
The Town Brookhaven mixed-use development has brought hundreds of new townhomes and apartments to the area. While these units feature modern construction, their compact designs often place laundry areas on upper floors with vents running through multiple stories. Even new vents can contain construction debris - drywall dust, insulation particles, and plastic - that must be removed before safe operation.
The Peachtree Road corridor through Brookhaven features a mix of luxury high-rise condominiums, townhome communities, and renovated homes. High-rise buildings have some of the longest dryer vent runs anywhere - sometimes 60 feet or more to reach exterior walls. These extended runs require specialized equipment and expertise to clean properly, and many condo associations now mandate annual cleaning.
Brookhaven's desirable location means many older homes are undergoing renovations that include laundry room relocations. When dryers are moved, vent systems are often extended or rerouted, sometimes by contractors unfamiliar with proper venting requirements. We frequently discover DIY or poorly installed vent work during our inspections and can correct these issues before they become dangerous.
Whether you own a classic ranch or a brand-new townhome, watch for these warning signs:
Clothes taking significantly longer to dry than when dryer was new
Dryer, laundry room, or clothes unusually hot during operation
Any burning smell requires immediate attention - stop using dryer
Lint around the dryer, on walls, or at the exterior vent
If you don't know when vents were last cleaned, it's time
New construction debris can block vents from day one
Fresh Air Duct provides specialized service for Brookhaven's diverse properties:
We assess your entire dryer vent system, identifying the vent type, measuring total length, documenting turns, and checking for code violations common in both older Ashford Park homes and newer construction.
Using rotating brush systems and high-powered commercial vacuums, we remove all lint, debris, and obstructions - including construction materials in new builds and years of accumulation in vintage homes.
We check the outdoor termination point for proper damper operation, pest intrusion, and adequate clearance from landscaping or building features.
For older Brookhaven homes with outdated systems, we provide detailed recommendations for bringing your dryer vent up to current safety standards.
Fresh Air Duct provides dryer vent cleaning throughout Brookhaven, including:
For comprehensive indoor air quality, combine dryer vent cleaning with our professional air duct cleaning services. This is especially important in older Brookhaven homes where both systems may have accumulated years of dust, allergens, and debris.
