Pet Owners, Listen Up: Your Furry Friends Might Be Stressing Out Your Appliances!
We love our pets — they’re family. But did you know that your pet could be putting extra strain on your home appliances?
At A TO Z IN HOME APPLIANCE REPAIR, we’ve helped hundreds of pet owners across Sacramento, Elk Grove, and nearby areas who were surprised to learn just how much pet hair, dander, and dirt can impact appliance performance — until something went wrong.
Here’s why cleaning your appliances more often is essential when you share your home with a dog, cat, or any other adorable, hairy companion.
How Pets Affect Your Appliances
Clogged Vents & Filters
Pet hair gets into dryer vents, refrigerator coils, and under your washer — blocking airflow and making your appliances work overtime.
Dirt, Dander & Dust
Pets bring in more than love — they also track in grime. That buildup shortens filter life and spreads allergens.
More Laundry = More Wear
Blankets, beds, and fur-covered clothes mean more laundry loads and more lint — increasing fire risk if not cleaned regularly
Odors and Hygiene Issues
Pet smells can linger in washing machines, fridges, and even dishwashers. Without cleaning, bacteria builds up fast.
What Should You Do?
Clean your dryer’s lint trap after every load
Vacuum dryer vents and fridge coils every 3–4 months
Use pet hair removers in your laundry
Keep the area behind/under appliances clean
Schedule yearly professional maintenance
Living in California’s dusty climate? It’s even more important to stay on top of this — the dry air adds to the buildup!
