Dryer Repair

You reach past the dryer to grab something from a shelf and your hand brushes the side of the machine. It is noticeably hot, far hotter than you would expect from an appliance you have been living with for years. Or you notice that the wall behind the dryer feels warm, or that the laundry…

Modern dryers are significantly more sophisticated than their predecessors, and much of that sophistication resides in the sensor systems that allow the machine to monitor the drying process in real time and make automatic decisions about when a cycle is complete. When these sensors are working correctly, they deliver a genuinely better result than a…

Most homeowners know they should clean the lint trap after every load. Fewer know that a single annual maintenance appointment for their dryer delivers benefits that go far beyond anything that routine lint trap cleaning alone can achieve.
