Multi-Unit & Commercial Programs

Shared chases, stacked runs, rooftop terminations, and machines that run all day change the math entirely — a laundromat vent can load with lint in weeks, not years. We service multi-family properties and commercial laundries on a scheduled program: every unit scoped and cleaned, every finding photographed, results ranked by risk so budgets go to the worst vents first. Property managers get per-unit documentation suitable for owners, insurers, and HOA boards; tenants get a scheduling window that actually holds. Scope and pricing are quoted per property after a walkthrough, because no two riser layouts bill alike.

What is it

What is multi-unit & commercial programs?

Multi-unit and commercial dryer vent service covers properties where the residential playbook breaks down: apartment and condo buildings with stacked runs and shared chases, rooftop terminations serving dozens of units, and businesses — laundromats, salons, pet groomers — whose machines run hours a day. Lint accumulation scales with run time, so a commercial vent can load in weeks. Our program combines scoping, cleaning, and repair across every unit with documentation built for the people accountable: per-unit findings with photos, a risk-ranked priority list for budgeting, and records suitable for owners, insurers, and boards. Scheduling is coordinated around tenants and business hours, and pricing is quoted per property after a walkthrough.

Built to code

The code your multi-unit & commercial programs has to meet.

A multi-unit & commercial programs isn't a matter of opinion — it's held to published national standards. Prime Dryer Vent builds every job to the named codes below and documents it, so the work is provably right for an inspector, an insurer, or a future buyer. These are the universal standards; your city's permit and inspection requirements are confirmed with the local authority before we pull the job.

IRC M1502UL 2158AIRC

IMC 504

The International Mechanical Code's clothes-dryer exhaust section governs commercial and multi-family installations — duct construction, termination, and makeup air — and is the reference our commercial work is checked against.

Codes cited are the established national standards (IRC, UL) that govern this service. The adopted code edition, permit, and inspection requirements vary by city —Prime Dryer Vent verifies them with your local authority having jurisdiction on every job.

Our process

How a multi-unit & commercial programs job runs.

01

Property walkthrough

We survey riser layouts, chases, terminations, and machine counts, then quote a per-unit scope in writing.

02

Unit-by-unit service

Each run is scoped, cleaned end to end, and photographed, with defects logged against the unit number.

03

Risk-ranked reporting

You receive a property-wide report: what passed, what needs repair, and in what order the money should go.

04

Recurring program

Cleaning intervals are set from measured lint accumulation — not a generic calendar — and documentation renews each cycle.

FAQ

Common questions about multi-unit & commercial programs.

How often should a dryer vent be cleaned?

For most households, once a year is the right rhythm. Push it earlier if the dryer runs daily, the run is long or has several elbows, you have pets, or the machine is gas-fired. The honest answer is measured, not guessed: if airflow at your termination is strong and drying times are normal, you can wait; if either slips, don't. Our inspections give you that measurement so the schedule fits your house instead of a generic calendar.

Do you clean air ducts, chimneys, or work on HVAC?

No. Dryer vents are the entire company — cleaning, inspection, repair, rerouting, rebuilds, and installs of the dryer exhaust system only. That's a deliberate choice, not a limitation: a crew that works on one system all day gets very good at it, and a visit from us never turns into a pitch for six other services. If your problem is outside the dryer vent, we'll say so plainly and you'll owe us nothing for the opinion.

How fast can you get to me?

In the Dallas–Fort Worth metro we can typically respond within about two hours for urgent calls — a fully blocked vent, a burning smell, a gas dryer you're worried about. Routine cleanings and inspections are usually scheduled within a couple of days. Outside DFW, in the Austin, San Antonio, and Houston metros, response depends on route density that week; we'll give you a real window when you call rather than a number we can't keep.

What does a visit actually cost?

Cleanings start at $99, inspections and diagnostics at $89, and repairs are quoted flat after we've scoped the duct. The published prices are true starting points; what moves them is physical: duct length, elbow count, second-story or roof access, and how compacted the lint is. You approve the exact number before any work starts, and the price we quote is the price you pay. No trip-fee surprises, no truck-side renegotiation.

What happens during a cleaning appointment?

We measure airflow at your outside hood first, so there's a baseline. Then the full run gets cleaned — rotary brush through the duct while a HEPA vacuum holds it under negative pressure, plus the transition hose behind the machine and the termination hood outside. We re-measure airflow, reset your dryer with proper clearance, and hand you a report with the before/after numbers and photos. Most homes take about an hour, and we leave the laundry room cleaner than we found it.
