Who publishes this site, and who we are not
Dryer Vent Due is published by Mindepy LLC as an independent digital reference site. We are not a federal, state, county, or city agency. We are not a utility, an appliance manufacturer, an industry association, a fire department, or a licensed cleaning contractor, and we have no partnership or endorsement relationship with any of them. No badge, seal, or logo on this site should be read as official approval from anyone.
The name describes the question the site answers, not a service we perform. A visitor who reads Dryer Vent Due is reading a publisher's notes about public cost information and a list of questions to ask a local company. That is the full scope of what we do, and the rest of this page makes the boundary explicit so no one buys a checklist expecting a crew at the door.
What this site does not do
We do not clean dryer vents. We do not inspect them, repair them, or quote a price for work on a specific home. We do not dispatch a technician, schedule an appointment, or introduce you to a local company. We do not file a government form, collect a government fee, or produce a document that proves an inspection happened.
We also do not publish do-it-yourself instructions for opening a duct, removing a vent cap, or climbing onto a roof. We do not describe how to take a vent apart, and we do not sell tools for that work. Those tasks involve access and equipment decisions that belong to a trained local professional who has seen the property, or to you if you are qualified and choose to act on your own responsibility.
Why this site does not claim a fire statistic
We do not claim a fire statistic on any page. We do not quote a count of dryer fires, a percentage of home fires, an injury figure, or a property loss figure, because we have not read and dated an official source for one inside this project. A number repeated without a linked, dated source is exactly the kind of claim this site exists to avoid.
If you need safety guidance for a specific appliance or building, use the authority that has jurisdiction over your property, your local fire service, or the manufacturer's published instructions for your model. Those sources outrank anything a checklist publisher writes. Where a page here touches safety, it does so by telling you what to ask a professional, not by asserting a statistic we cannot show you the source of.
What the paid PDF is and is not
The paid file is a short, tailored checklist for one property. It repeats the 2026 cost range from the cited article, the three exit-location ranges, the question about ladder or roof access, and your chosen next date. It is not a government form. It is not a permit, a certificate, an inspection report, a compliance record, or a receipt from any agency.
Buying the file does not make a property compliant with any rule, and it does not create any obligation on a cleaning company to honor a price printed in it. The file is licensed for your own personal or internal business use on the property covered by your plan. The terms page sets out the license, and the refund page sets out when a purchase can be reversed.
Source links, read dates, and third-party pages
Cost figures on this site are tied to a public article published by Angi, which we read on 2026-11-13. The address of that article is printed on the page that quotes it, and the read date travels with the number so you can tell how old our note is. We do not control that third-party page. It can change its figures, change its structure, or move to a new address without telling us.
A link to an outside page is a citation, not an endorsement of everything else on that page or on that site. If the source has changed, the source wins and our note is stale until we revise it. If a link here is broken, write to support@dryerventdue.com with the page address and we will repair or replace the citation rather than leave a dead reference in place.
Cost ranges, liability, and how to ask a question
A published range describes what other people reported paying in a national dataset. It is not a quote for your home, your roof pitch, your duct length, or your local labor market. Two houses on the same street can receive different quotes for reasons that are invisible in a table, which is why every page here tells you to compare written scopes instead of a single headline number.
We are not liable for a contractor's bill, a government late fee, a fine, a failed inspection, property damage, or a decision you make after reading this site. If a court finds us liable for the digital product itself, our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us for that purchase. Questions about scope, refunds, or privacy can go to support@dryerventdue.com.
What independent means here, and who pays for the site
Every page on this site is written by us and funded by the checklist plans sold on the pricing page. We take no payment from a cleaning company, a manufacturer, a utility, an agency, or an association, and we accept no placement fee or referral commission. That is what independent means in the header of this site: a publisher covering its own costs from its own product, with no mandate from anyone else and no outside advertiser to keep satisfied.
Independence also explains the shape of the copy. Because no company pays for a mention, there is no reason to rank one above another, and the site names no local company at all. The cost figures exist to help you read a quote you receive elsewhere, not to steer you toward a particular provider or a particular price.
How to tell an official page from ours
An official page is published by the agency or company that has authority over the property, and it usually carries that body's own domain, contact details, and form numbers. Pages here live on dryerventdue.com, carry the address support@dryerventdue.com, and describe a checklist rather than a filing. A screenshot, a forwarded email, or a search result that looks similar does not turn our page into an official one.
When a page here cites an outside source, the link goes to that source, and the source is the document with standing, not our summary of it. If the two ever disagree, the source wins and our sentence is the one that has to be corrected.
Corrections, and what we do with them
If a sentence here misstates what a cited page says, or a link no longer resolves, write to support@dryerventdue.com with the page address and the sentence in question. We check the citation and either correct the copy or explain why the wording stands. What we will not do is quietly change a figure to match a reader's expectation, because a page that edits its numbers without a new read date is worse than a page that admits its note is old.
A correction request is not a complaint form and does not require an order number. A page address and the exact sentence are enough, and a reply comes from the same support address that handles orders, refunds, and privacy requests.
