    Clean your lint trap after every single load — this is your first line of defense
    Check your exterior vent flap periodically to ensure it opens and closes freely
    Never use flexible foil or plastic dryer vent hose — use rigid or semi-rigid metal
    Don't overload your dryer — it restricts airflow and increases lint buildup
    Schedule professional vent cleaning annually, or sooner if drying times increase

    Common HVAC Issues in Orting

    Heat pump defrost cycle failures

    Cold Orting winters stress heat pump defrost systems. A failing defrost board can lead to ice buildup and complete system shutdown.

    Tight construction causing air quality problems

    Newer Orting homes are sealed tightly for efficiency, but this can trap indoor pollutants. An ERV or HRV system provides fresh air without losing energy.

    Dirty filters reducing system efficiency

    Clogged filters force your HVAC system to work harder, increasing energy bills by 15% or more. Orting homeowners should replace filters every 1-3 months.

    Thermostat calibration problems

    Improperly calibrated thermostats cause temperature swings and wasted energy. Smart thermostat upgrades pay for themselves within one Orting heating season.
