How we repair your Dryer
A clothes dryer tumbles wet laundry in a heated drum and vents moist air outside through a duct. Every dryer uses a drive motor and belt, a blower, a gas burner or electric element, thermostats and thermal fuses, and an exhaust vent. A technician checks airflow first, because a restricted vent causes most heating failures, then tests the heat source and safety devices.

Quick checks you can do safely
- Clean the lint screen before every load.
- Check the vent hood outside opens when running.
- Straighten a crushed vent hose behind the dryer.

Safety first: Lint buildup is a fire hazard and gas dryers can leak gas or carbon monoxide, so keep the vent clear and leave if you smell gas.
